Equipment Ordering
You can now order some items from Brian Jones via the internet on Ebay. This link to Slamurai has the list of items currently on sale. Slamurai is independent from and not part of the BKJJA.
Open Competitions
There are two clubs running open events in England that BKJJA members are welcome to take part in. More details can be found on their websites. The United Martial Alliance (UMA) website address is www.umauk.co.uk. It has events based in and around the Midlands and the North West. The Combat Academy (www.thecombatacademy.com) has events held in the South East. The events are held regularly. BKJJA and AU members taking part must ensure their insurance covers the event. BBF members are usually covered if they notify the BBF, in advance, of their attendance.
Criminal Records Bureau Clearance
Coaches wishing to be CRB registered need to contact Peter Smith to make their interest known. The applications are processed via the BKJJA. The documents require several proofs of identity to be presented to the BKJJA. If you help at Actionnaires sessions or the MIST events it is preferred, though not compulsory, that you are CRB cleared.
All the Daisy UK people are CRB cleared and they are in charge of the Liverpool University Actionnaires sessions and MIST sessions.
Insurance
Advice from the BBF is that BBF insurance only covers events organised by the BBF. BKJJA members participating in events must take out their own insurance for events not organised by the BBF. AU members also need to take care to ensure they are properly covered for events held away from University premises and outside of term times. AU members can obtain BBF insurance cover by becoming members of the BKJJA.
