The creation of combat sports public registers will first and foremost make the process of matching contests and building fight cards simpler for promoters and matchmakers. It will also allow for registered persons under the Combat Sports Act 2013 (the Act) to check their own registration status at their own convenience.
The Combat Sports Authority of NSW endeavours to ensure that information in the public register is accurate.
