Ringsports: All who register are provisionally placed into categories within the age weight limit allowances. We do NOT merge categories. If fighters cant be directly matched we will create new divisions within 2yrs and 3k allowance. (All other competitions are 3yrs+ and up to 6k so we still do the fairest divisions)

If we cant match you within the 2yrs and 3k allowance we will refund you or allow you switch rules or move up a ages weight division at YOUR coaches consent.

Tatami Sports: All divisions are set with 3yrs age and 5k weight tolerance for juniors, adult are 5k weigh allowance.

All divisions are provisional until all fighters have weighed in, passed licence check and passed medical where required. These things are out of our control but will do our best to manage any changes which need to be made following the check stages.

We will always do our best to match as many as possible, but will always notify and refund those that cant be matched.
