- Description of contact level and methodology for assessing contact level:
- Controlled Contact Level
- The requirement is that contact level is controlled through proper technique executed on legal target areas without full power and the intent to injury or hurt the opponent. Control percentages are given as a quantitative guide for coaches and athletes. The priority is that all punches and kicks are controlled with significantly less contact than ring sport disciplines. While controlled contact is a subjective area, ‘impact and intent’ will be assessed by the officials during all bouts.
