Athlete Registration
All athletes must be members of Muay Thai Ontario in order to compete in the tournament. Registration costs are as follows:
$50 – Early Registration – Ends September 30th, 2015
$65 – Standard Registration – Ends November 8th, 2015
In addition, membership costs are as follows:
$40 – 2015 Active Individual Membership
$20 – Athlete Passbook
If an athlete already has a membership/passbook then that fee does not need to be paid a second time.
Registering as an Alternate
If the chosen Competitive Division is full (8 registrants) the athlete may opt to either remain registered as an alternate (maximum 4) in that division, allowing first priority to compete should any space become available.
Weigh Ins
Weigh ins are performed with the athlete wearing Thai shorts, and are completed each morning of competition. It is inadvisable to rely on a significant cut in water weight in order to make weight in a division. Instead, register for a weight class that is close to the athlete’s training weight to avoid missing weight or affecting performance/safety. Voluntary division changes are available at a fee for those who wish to alter the weight at which they are registered.
Division Changes
A division change may be done if an athlete wishes to change their registered division. This may occur because of a change in athlete’s weight, an accrual of experience that alters their experience class, or an athlete wishes to move from a position as an alternative in to a bracket with availability. An athlete may move Weight Classes, Experience Classes, or both.
$15 – Early – Ends September 30th, 2015
$25 – Standard – Ends October 31st, 2015
$35 – Late – Ends November 8thth, 2015
$50 – Day Of – Ends November 14th, 2015

Tournament Champions
