Any spectators that we deem to be displaying inappropriate behavior (swearing, gesturing, violence) will firstly be given a verbal warning and if there is a second instance, they will be asked to leave.

We ask all attendees to our competitions to show a certain degree of restraint when supporting their students or team mates and show a decent level of courtesy to the opposing fighter, referees and staff.

Any participant (or supporter of a participant) whose behaviour falls below the standards of good sportsmanship that we expect can, at the discretion of the referee/organizers be disqualified from the event or asked to leave. Significant infringements can lead to a banning from all future events.
