This means no guard pulling, falling to the floor voluntarily to engage there or performing a take down with no control over your balance. The only way an opponent can engage in newaza is through a valid sabaki takedown for 2 points. Same Sabaki rules for standing except no knees to the head. We are not calling this mma, wrestling, bjj, judo or jiujitsu, but newaza.

Kicks and strikes to the groin are not permitted. Hand or elbow strikes or head butts to the neck and face area are not permitted. In the event that the judge’s decision is tied and the referee calls a “draw,” then there will be a one minute overtime to decide the match. If the score at the end of the match is tied, the fighter with fewer penalties will be declared the winner. If both fighters have the same number of points and penalties, the match will go to a judges’ decision. The quarter-final and semi-final and final matches will consist of one 6 minute round for adults 18 and over one 5 minute round for children/teens under 18. All fighters must wear a karate gi (in good repair: with long pants, sleeves to the elbows, and belt). Taping the hands and feet is not permitted. Hand or foot guards are not allowed to be worn. This handicap will apply to the preliminary, quarter-final, semi-final and final rounds of the tournament.įighters are required to wear a mouthpiece and a groin cup. Any fighter who exceeds the upper limit of his weight division will be penalized in the following manner: for each pound he is over the limit for his weight division, one point will be awarded to his opponent at the start of the match. There will be a weigh-in at the meeting the night before the tournament. Attendance at this meeting is required, and must be considered when making arrangements for coming to the SABAKI CHALLENGE. There will be a mandatory meeting for all fighters and judges held the evening before the SABAKI CHALLENGE.
