  3. SCHEDULING YOUR EVENT
     • As in any other Professional Sanctioning Body (NBA, NFL etc.) the IKF Asia will continue to assure events will not conflict with one another when it comes to event scheduling. Knowing this, we have established the following guidelines for scheduling an IKF Asia Sanctioned event:
       • If your proposed IKF Asia Sanctioned event is more than 50 miles from any other already scheduled IKF Asia Sanctioned event, the following rules do not apply to you and your proposed IKF Asia Sanctioned event.
       • If your proposed IKF Asia Sanctioned event is within 50 Miles In The Same State Or Across Any Bordering State, IKF Asia Scheduling protocols require that the second scheduling promoter schedule their event date a minimum of:
         • 5 Days BEFORE or 5 Days AFTER the already scheduled Promoter who’s event is already scheduled. (The scheduled event days do not count as counted days)
       • If you are in need of a certain date that falls at or inside the required guidelines above you may request to the IKF Asia Headquarters a written request for a “waiver of date guideline” by e-mail to info@ikf-asia.com
       • Such a request must include a detailed reason why you “NEED” the requested date and why you cannot extend your date to the required guidelines as noted above.
       • If the already scheduled IKF Asia Promoter agrees to waive the time guidelines you will be allowed to schedule your event inside the required time guidelines listed above.
  4. APPROVAL PROCESS
     • Your IKF Asia Promoters Application will be Approved or Denied within 7 business days from the day it is received here at the IKF Asia Headquarters.
     • If denied you will be notified in writing via e-mail of the reasons for your denial and given suggestions on how to attain approval if possible.
     • If approved your event will be listed on the IKF Asia Events page.
  5. OTHER FIGHTING STYLES
     • If you are planning on having MMA/NHB (Mixed Martial Arts) as part of your event, you will be required to sanction your MMA portion of your event with the ISCF.
