AMMASA Inc. & League Boxing NSW Inc.
Welcome to the Officials Course, developed through the cooperation of AMMASA Inc. and League Boxing NSW Inc.
Through this training program, we aim to develop officials who are respected by athletes, coaches and promoters, while providing a clear pathway for individuals wishing to build a career in combat sports officiating.
Our three-level development framework provides opportunities to progress through:
1 Star – C Class: Entry-level officials developing practical experience.
2 Star – B Class: Experienced amateur officials who have demonstrated competency through assessment.
3 Star – A Class: Advanced officials qualified and assessed for professional-level contests.
Whether you are attending your first course or continuing your development as an experienced official, this program is an important step towards improving the standards of combat sports across Australia.
Rules
Our objective is to establish a professional, transparent and consistent standard of officiating across Boxing, Kickboxing, Muay Thai and MMA, ensuring that every contest is conducted fairly, safely and in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations.
The Role of an Official – Understanding the responsibilities, conduct, professionalism and expectations of referees, judges and supervisors.
Rules and Regulations – An introduction to the different combat sports disciplines, their rulesets and the importance of applying regulations consistently.
Scoring and Judging – Understanding scoring criteria, how to assess a round, determine a winner and accurately complete official scorecards.
Fouls and Penalties – Identifying prohibited techniques, recognising infringements and understanding warnings, point deductions and disqualifications.
Referee Responsibilities – Fighter safety, controlling a contest, recognising when intervention is required and applying appropriate procedures.
Fight Results and Decisions – Understanding the different types of contest outcomes, how results are determined and the correct procedures for recording decisions.
Safety and Equipment – Understanding compulsory protective equipment, pre-fight checks and the importance of athlete welfare.
Appeals and Reviews – Understanding how coaches may request a review, the responsibilities of officials and supervisors, and the procedures for handling disputed decisions professionally.
Practical Training and Assessment – Applying the knowledge gained through practical exercises, scoring activities, simulated situations and assessments.
Officials Development Pathway – Understanding the qualification framework, ongoing education and progression from entry-level officiating through to experienced amateur and professional-level appointments.
Officiating is about more than knowing the rules. It requires integrity, impartiality, confidence, consistency and the ability to make decisions under pressure.
