  • ISKA SPORT MMA RULES SUBJECT to CHANGE REQUIRED EQUIPMENT: • ISKA Approved Combined Shin and Instep Protectors
    BASIC DESCRIPTION ISKA SPORT MMA is a mixed martial arts sparring competition. It may best be viewed as a light contact version of MMA. ISKA Sport MMA provides competitors with an opportunity to use many of the same techniques associated with MMA, including; strikes, throws, shoots, grappling and submissions applied safely with light or semi-contact. This will be strictly enforced (no damaging strikes or slams). The format for our Sport MMA competition is additionally designed to allow each and every competitor the opportunity to gain as much experience as possible. In order to achieve this, we have instituted a “best of three, tap out” rule (explained below) . Each match begins with two competitors starting from the stand-up position. Light contact strikes combined with good foot-work may be used to control the action, score, or close the gap for a shoot or takedown. If the match goes to the ground, grappling, submissions and light contact striking to legal targets come into play. The goal is to either outscore your opponent with legal, light contact strikes and/or to obtain submissions over your opponent. EXPLAINING THE BEST OF THREE, SUBMISSION RULE • If FIGHTER A obtains a submission over FIGHTER B , it is recorded on the score sheet and the match gets restarted from the stand-up position. • FIGHTER B must now obtain a submission over FIGHTER A in order to have a chance at winning the match. Regardless of how effective FIGHTER B is for the rest of the match, if he/she does not score a submission over FIGHTER A , then he/she will lose even if he/she is the superior technical competitor, gains more points for striking or outclasses FIGHTER A for the duration of the bout.
