Become an affiliate member of the English Mixed Martial Arts Association and find strength, success and unity in numbers
The English Mixed Martial Arts Association (EMMAA) is reaching out to every MMA club and gym in England to reassure you that we are continuing to work hard to improve standards across the sport, while looking for additional opportunities to help you grow your businesses.
We understand right now the full focus is on a return to normal gym operation, but we are also hoping these trying times have highlighted to everybody in MMA just how much we need to come together as a single community in order to grow the sport for all.
Here is an outline of what the EMMAA board are currently working towards:
- Club Affiliation as an approved EMMAA Gym, offering IMMAF coaching certifications and support in all areas of code of conduct, ethics and best practice, providing you with tools to enhance your offering to your students both existing and new.
- Specialist Insurance and related benefits to both support your gym and your members.
- Access to regional and national competition to select Team Members to go through to IMMAF World Championships with categories from Cadets to Adult.
- Free access to educational information regarding athletic performance, Nutritional strategies, strength & conditioning and weight cutting best practice.
- Recommendations on competition and best practice promotions, clarification on rules and how to qualify best practice medical and safety standards during competition.
- Clothing, equipment and sports supplement discounts with some of the best brands in the market.
- A direct voice to the government sports ministry, leading to acceptance of MMA as a sport in England, opening up revenue streams for all via sports lottery funding etc.
At this stage we simply want your support in return. EMMAA is a non-profit association, recognised by IMMAF as England’s sole MMA federation. But to grow and be heard we need your support too.
