The task of the League is to enable that the best fighters continued fight with best and to show on new way how ITF is strong and beautiful. Second task but not less important goal is to interest and attract the audiences. Creator of concept is Master Toni Nobilo, president of European ITF. For some future times goal of League of Southeast Europe is to become something like Champions League in football and Euroleague in basketball for example. Rules Rules are basic ITF rules(Chang Ung) with some changes: 1. Every match is organized to have two half-times. In first, there is fights between fighters in there categories. Lighter fighter can appear in higher weight category. In second half-time trainers mix fighters and there is no weight restriction. For example: Fighter in -71kg category can fight with fighter in +85kg category if coach decide that.

If a team do not have fighter for one of category they get -10 points. In same match replacement can appear in second half-time. Page 10 Copyright Original-ITF 2011
