| WORLD ORGANIZATION OF MARTIAL ARTS ATHLETES I. P. C. INTERNATIONAL PROMOTER'S CIRCUIT (RATINGS SYSTEM) |
| Welcome to the W.O.M.A.A. I.P.C., one of the only true International Martial Arts Ratings Systems in the world. The I.P.C. is designed to give promoters and competitors worldwide the international recognition that they so richly deserve. W.O.M.A.A. , at this point, has sanctioned events currently running in Australia, Germany, Canada, Kenya, Sierra Leone, Iran, Ireland, the U.S. and more. We are seeking international promoters who have the foresight to take that important step to the next level and offer their competitors something very special, a true international Rating System which gives competitors the chance to become True World Champions and earn "International Recognition and higher possible CASH prizes". The I.P.C. is designed to give competitors from around the world, the edge they need, to become internationally rated against competitors from many international countries, secure TRUE World Championship status and see who becomes the best overall. The IPC will also give the promoters the opportunity to draw more competitors to their events. All Sanctioning organizations are good, but the I.P.C. Rating system will offer something even more to the competitors, a chance for them to compete in Open competitions around the world and earn points toward their championship status. All competitors around the globe, can then come to compete against rated and non rated competitors from well over 30 countries from around the world each year at the WOMAA World Martial Games. At this event only is the World Champion decided. All International and U.S. promoters may sanction there events with WOMAA. They may also apply to host their tournament as a new WOMAA IPC Internationally Rated event. Ratings are as follows: "A", "AA", "AAA", "AAAA", "AAAAA". All 1A, 2A, and 3A Rated events are National Type events. All 4A and 5A Rated events are Internationally Rated Events. There are certain criteria which must be met to nationally or internationally rate your event with IPC. . These requirements will be explained in the Promoters Handbook and WOMAA International Development program booklet which will be sent to a prospective promoter upon request. WOMAA Rated events will afford the competitors the chance to earn points toward International Recognition and the possibility to earn large CASH Awards. For instance, in the future, at the World Martial Games each year, we would like to offer the overall point winner for the 3 day event CASH Awards. ie; Adult BlackBelt Overall point winner - $3000.00 (US), Junior Black Belt Overall Point Winner ($2000.00), Adult Underbelt overall point winner - ($1,000.00), Junior Underbelt overall point winner - ($750.00). Understand this will not happen though, until we secure sponsors for this. We are constantly seeking sponsors and once we secure them for this aspect we will post it on the website. Until then WOMAA will continue to offer over $12,000 in great awards. Interested Promoters from around the world, please contact WOMAA Hdqtrs, request the new I.P.C. Promoters Handbook and find out how you can add something to your event that competitors around the world will be looking for.
