Section 38-4-001 - EVENT PERMITS
Current through March 20, 2024
001.01 An event permit must be obtained from the Commission by the promoter before every event. The request for the permit must be received by the Commission at least 21 days prior to the date of the scheduled event.
001.02 The promoter must send the Commission a list of all bouts and participating contestants at least 14 days prior to the scheduled event.
001.03 The Commissioner may disapprove any bout or reduce the number of rounds requested by the promoter between two (2) contestants because of disparity with respect to age, physical ability, skill level, or experience. No licensee may serve at and no contestant may compete in a bout or event in any capacity if the Commissioner has denied an event permit.
001.04 Bouts in which more than two (2) contestants are to compete at the same time and bouts between members of the opposite sex will not be approved.
001.05 Medical insurance, death benefit policies, and bonds must be current. Copies of these policies must be on file with the Commission before an event permit will be issued.
001.06 Causes for a denial of an event permit may include, but are not limited to:
001.07 If two (2) or more event permits have been received by the Commissioner for events of the same sport occurring within 24 hours, and such events are less than 100 miles apart, the Commissioner reserves the right to only approve the first complete application submitted.
001.08 The Commissioner reserves the right to refuse any permit because of an inadequate or unsafe site selection or for any other reason the Commissioner deems to be contrary to the best interests of the regulated sport.
001.09 A promoter cannot schedule more than 40 rounds for any one (1) event, except with the approval of the Commissioner. A promoter of an amateur or professional MMA event cannot schedule more than 16 bouts.
001.10 An event must end no later than 11:59 p.m. A promoter's failure to adhere to this requirement may result in the Commissioner permitting fewer bouts at the promoter's next event, in addition to any additional disciplinary action when appropriate.
