Combat Sports Open Trials 2007: 1st Leg
11th February 2007
Hereford

The Open Trials is an amateur Mixed Martial Arts competition, with no striking to the head permitted, and allows all punches, kicks, knees, throws, takedowns and submissions. Each competitor is guaranteed a minimum of two fights on the day.

These events, now in their seventh year, offer the perfect opportunity to gain invaluable experience in Mixed Martial Arts competition and are open to ALL competitors from all martial arts backgrounds.

The Combat Sports Open Trials is where MMA champions of tomorrow are born. Zelg Galesic, Paul Jenkins, Sol Gilbert, Paul Daley, Alex Owen and Oliver Ellis are just a few of today’s hottest stars who have worked their way through the Combat Sports Open Trials ranks.

Weight categories for the events are as follows:

-70.5kg : Lightweight
-77kg: Welterweight
-84kg : Middleweight
-93kg : Light-Heavyweight
-120kg : Heavyweight

The Open Trials is a tough but fun day out. Attitudes are left at the door as the competitors meet to test their skills in a friendly and like-minded environment.

Open Trials competitors will usually fight twice during the afternoon. After the event, competitors are awarded points for their performance (3 points for a win, 2 for a draw, 1 for a loss) and then given an official ranking in the Combat Sports Open Trials 2007 league table.

Successful competitors in the Combat Sports Open Trials events during the three Legs that will be held during 2007 will be invited back to compete in the Combat Sports National Championship 2007 later in the year, where they will fight tournament-style for the National Title, Title Belt, National Recognition and £100 per weight category prize.
