StrikeFighter's Big Blast
A weekend of submission, boxing, gp and laidback hanging out at StrikeFighter's matroom / boxing ring in Heemskerk, 25km northwest of Amsterdam (1hr by public transport.)

'Open mat meets sleepover', that's the idea.

• Mats will be available from 19:00 on Friday 24 Jan till 16:00 on Sunday 26 Jan.
• However, the mats (15m2 – one fight at a time) and boxing ring (5m2) can't be used simultaneously, so something of a schedule will be worked out beforehand based on participants' interests.
• If you're interested in one modality and not in the other, don't let that put you off: there will be enough time for both, and there's always space to watch.
• Spare boxing gloves available (but bring your own mouthguard)
• Staying overnight is not mandatory and one-day participants are welcome.
• A shower is available but you're kindly asked to bring your own towel(s)

Dress code

• Up to you, but please be aware not all participants may be comfortable with skimpy gear. Suggestion: shirtless (or rashguard, if you must), and mma shorts / boxing trunks.
• Bjj-practicioners, please leave your gi at home. There will not be enough room to hang kimonos out to air.
• Mouthguards should be worn while boxing and are highly recommended for submission.

Please note: if you're allergic to cats, this event is probably not for you.
