Have you ever considered becoming a mixed martial arts referee or want to refine your skills? Do you want to know what it is takes to become an educated Referee? Now is your opportunity.
With the explosion of MMA; Promoters, Fighters & Fans deserve an educated MMA Official at their events. Consider taking a seminar with an International MMA Referee: Marc Fennell.
Marc has experience as an international MMA Referee and been in the cage to referee over a thousand fights. He has been assigned to referee throughout the Midwest, Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, Canada, KOTC and the UFC at UFC 90 in Chicago.
Some of the topics that will be covered for include but not limited to: fouls, rules, prefight and post fight responsibilities, positioning, mechanics and much more. You will not only learn about being a referee, but most importantly, how to perform these tasks properly with consistency keeping in mind fighter safety.
The instructional portion of this seminar will provide you with vital information in taking your first steps to becoming a quality referee. The hands on portion offer the opportunity of refereeing simulated bouts (sparring sessions) with skilled fighters in a live session.
MMARCS has been recognized as a Training and Certification MMA Referee Course through the Association of Boxing Commissions (ABC).
Why should fighters attend?
"Marc is more than just a referee. He has acquired actual hands on experience training, and sparring to add to his background. He knows the physical limitations of the human body and what an athlete can and cannot endure. He is a true fighters referee that every promotion would be fortunate to have. I know this seminar is aimed primarily at judges and referee's, but I believe it would greatly improve any fighters game as they will understand what the referee and judges are looking for and how they are scoring each round. This could very well be the information that would ensure you victory in a very close contest."
