Rules and Regulation
Kajukenbo Arizona will not tolerate any unsportsmanlike-like conduct. Any disrespectful behavior will result in immediate disqualification and removal from the premises of the athlete, with no refund of the registration fee.
The weigh in system is the same used by IBJJF. The competitor will weigh in before his first match. If you don’t make weight, you will be immediately disqualified. Please make sure that you are in the correct weight category. You cannot change divisions, if you do not make your designed division. No changes will be accepted on the day of the tournament, and no refunds will be made. We offer an extra scale for people to check their weights before.
No Stalling: Referee will issue one negative point for the 1st offense of stalling (i.e. backing out of the guard without engaging, no activity, and running out of the ring to avoid takedown or submission attempts). A 2nd offense will result in a 2 Points deduction. A 3rd offense will result in a disqualification.
Wrestling shoes or any type of shoes, head gear, shirts under the gi (except for girls) and any kind of protectors (Including cup!) that can alter the outcome of the match in any way are not allowed in competition.
Hygiene: All competitors will be checked for communicable disease, not limited but including ring-worm, staph and herpes.
