We have and still are investing heavily in the Grappling and now the M.M.A. Arts, now all we need is your support to continue to provide Top Quality Championship Events for everyone.

We now have the backing and support of the G.A.A, too, they now provide the U.M.A. with the facility to offer Non U.M.A. and even Non G.A.A. Members, infact anyone Optional Competitor Insurance at all and for all U.M.A. Championship Events.

If you are already a current G.A.A. Member, then you are already covered for all or any of the U.M.A. Championship Events.

Hopefully, we will contiunue to have everyones support here on Cage Warriors

I will let others on this forum who have attended any of our Championship Events answer this one.

But just to give you a heads up etc, there has never been one U.M.A. Championship Event that has run past 5.00pm ever, and there are no vague hopes either at our Championships, everyone entered has competed, and we do have different registration and weigh in times too...

I have attended one of your events, I didn't just comment for fun!

If you feel you can help or advise on how to help improve our weigh in times and how to improve Category/Fight waiting times etc, please feel free to let us know, its all about improvement, just as in training, the goal is to be better...

i dont like the your only allowed to be on one knee while passing the guard and 3 minute matches

think i will just go to the Ground control and SAS ones

The U.M.A. use a scoring system which has been developed and refined over the last 3 years to date due the Championship Events we have held and the improvements made based on our experiences, help and advice etc, running our succesful Championships each year to date, we keep the rules pretty plain and simple and as uncomplicated as possible, but hey if you don't like groundfighting and the rules we use, then no probs, its horses for course, we know we can't and won't please everyone, but hey, your input is greatly appreciated, so thanks, you can check out our Groundfighting and Grappling rules Gi and No Gi etc, from the UMA Website: http://www.umauk.co.uk/U.M.A._Tournament_Rules.htm

just a quick question --MAY 23/ 24th

the nogi is under groundfighting rules
and the Gi comp is under grappling rules

and the grappling rules allow takedowns? I ve read the rest of the rules and it all looks good to me
