MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your interest in the USA Martial Arts Association.  The USA Martial Arts Association is dedicated to providing the highest quality martial arts tournament circuit in the United States.  Our ultimate goal is to provide a wholesome environment for entire families to enjoy a martial arts tournament based on the pursuit of excellence rather than winning at all costs. 

It has long been my desire to have an organization that is dedicated to the development of children.  You will see by our Mission Statement that that is not only our goal, but also our mission in this association.  I trust that the information enclosed will provide you with a real insight into the interworkings of the USA Martial Arts Association. 

The USA Martial Arts Association Tournament Circuit is designed not to be limited just as a Texas circuit but rather a United States circuit.  We are currently aligned with the NASKA rating system to allow students to compete for both World and USA tournament points.

The Association will have a Board of Regents made up of five individuals who will oversee the operations to ensure compliance in all areas.  The organization is a for profit organization which will work hard to provide a quality environment in order to assure each producer a financial reward for their efforts. Board of Regents members responsibilities will be working with each producer to assure that every individual’s request are considered.  Producers will be rewarded directly for their hard work by being given higher circuit ratings, which will eventually lend itself to greater monetary success. A copy of the license agreement will be provided to your organization upon request.  That license agreement is exclusively your organization’s for life if all requirements are met and can be sold with Board approval at whatever monetary amount you wish.

I believe that by having a tournament circuit in which all producers’ respect and encourage each other that participant’s and their families will look forward to our events.  Our organization is dedicated to being a professional one, which respects all who participate in the process equally.  I am very much looking forward to your school becoming a part of the USA Martial Arts Association.

Johnny G. Peavey

President
