FUNDRAISER

Mixed martial arts is really feeling the pain of the pandemic and subsequent restrictions.

We are hearing so many stories of fighters struggling for competition which directly affects their income. Similarly gyms/ academies are closing. The knock-on effect to MMA that will be that we lose talent as individuals are forced to go work elsewhere or are forced to leave the sport so that they can financially support themselves and their families.

Equally as important are those that participate in martial arts for their own physical and mental wellbeing. If the place that helps fulfil their health goals goes away, then that will have a negative impact on those students.

In order to help this situation is to keep the gyms/academies open and their coaches working - 'keeping the lights on'.

Through a process of financial donations and profits derived from auctioned items we hope to generate a decent sum of money to donate to a nominated MMA gym/ academy that will hopefully go some way in helping that business function.
