ISKA Amateur Members Association WORLD KICKBOXING CHAMPIONSHIPS 2017 31st May to 3rd June Athens Greece

By Nerissa Singgangan

Unfortunately we’re going to move the ISKA Worlds 2017, the government recognised Italian Kickboxing federation has strict rules regarding juniors, they are not allowed to compete in Semi-contact under the age of 10 years, light contact under the age of 13 years and Full Contact under the age of 16 years.

Other groups in Italy may ignore the government federation rules especially if they’re not members, but our ISKA Director and promoter Carlo Di Blasi must accept them.

These restrictions recently came to light and would mean cancelling the 8-12 years semi & light contact and the Cadet 14-15 years Full Contact categories and would also effect the Junior Muaythai and K-1 Light divisions.

So I can now confirm the ISKA Worlds 2017 will be staged in Athens Greece on the same dates 31^st May to 3^rd June 2017, Stelios Politis ISKA Greece hosted the K-1 OPEN last October and did a great job, Athens is a great city.

I apologise for any inconvenience the move may cause, Information packs with divisions and hotel details will be ready in a few days.
