2026 IATBA Championships: Finals Day Programme (Saturday, 14th March)

The official programme for Finals Day this Saturday is now available. Please review the attached schedule below to check your bout number and running order.

Please read the following essential updates carefully before Saturday morning

🏆 Claiming Titles by Walkover

If you are uncontested and accepting a title by way of a walkover, you must comply with the following rules:

• You MUST weigh in on Saturday morning to officially claim your title. If you do not weigh in, the title will not be awarded.
• Grade Progression: By accepting a walkover title, you are officially registering a championship win. This means you will automatically move up to the next experience grade (e.g., from Novice to Intermediate) for next year’s tournament. If you do not wish to move up a grade, you must decline the walkover title.

⚠️ Inform Us of Withdrawals

If you are scheduled to compete, or scheduled to claim a walkover, but do not intend to weigh in, you must inform us immediately.

Please do not simply fail to show up. Out of respect for your opponents, the officials, and the scheduling team, email us at iatba.2010@gmail.com as soon as possible if you are withdrawing.

Best of luck to all finalists taking to the ring this Saturday!
