Entry Requirements

COMPETITORS

Competitors must be entered collectively through Sportdata (www.sportdata.org) and should be completed by the Head of Association, Lead Instructor or Delegate.

Independent Athletes

If you are the only member from your group entering, or do not have a Club or Instructor and wish to register as an independent athlete, please contact our Tournament Committee at info@TheWarriorOpen.com

Kickboxers

Any athlete with WAKO, Kickboxing or relevant striking experience, will need to declare this in order to participate in the Sparring events.

An athlete who has competed at a National level will only be allowed to compete at a Yellow Belt or above sparring division.

An athlete with International Tournament experience will only be allowed to compete at Green Belt or above for sparring.

These athletes will be able to compete at White Belt for patterns if that is their experience level for Patterns/Tuls. A separate profile will need to be completed, but the athlete will naturally only be charged for one entry.
