Hi Dean please don't get me wrong it is good for the older kids.

I said 12yrs as most Kickboxing orgs have a 10-12yrs division so starting from Juniors 12-14 then 14-16yrs, cadets 16-18yrs then 18yrs+ is fine.

Myself personally though feel (and this is my own opinion not a dig at JFCC) that any younger than that is a bit dodgy.

As a fullcontact fighter/ coach I can understand where your coming from, but what I am saying is that the general public not the kickboxing community would frown upon it.

As reference to the "Baby fightclub" my point is I know Nikki and Conner very well and they are very nice guys and she is supporting her son in what he loves and they are doing their bit for the sport, but when the viewing public saw that on tv they just saw 2 little kids hitting 10 bells out of each other and that is what hurt kids Muay Thai and that is what could happen to Kids Kickboxing also.

It doesnt matter how many disclaimer forms you sign, what insurance you have, how safe the competition and officiating is if a 9yr old gets paralised or gets brain damage because of say a fullcontact headkick then the "8 count rule" isnt going to count for anything and what are you going to say to the parents and how would you feel for that child and their family?

Again this is no dig and I wish the JFCC all the best, but this is my own view as a fullcontact fighter, coach, but above all father.
