Hosting a USBA/WBA Sanctioned or Partnered Event

Group photo from 2008 Twin TowersUSBA/WBA Sanctioned Events: The United States Breaking Association and World Breaking Association have established a series of Breaking Championships to form the USBA/WBA circuit. The tournaments and events that are sanctioned as part of this circuit are host to the specific “Breaking Championship” named for that event (more information on current and available championships can be found on the “Rating Information” page and “Sanctioned Competitions” page). The USBA/WBA assigns a championship name based on the size of the event, its location, and its value to the USBA/WBA membership. The only sanctioned events are those that are posted on the USBA website under "Sanctioned Events" and forwarded to USBA/WBA members.

The USBA/WBA keeps ratings on all competitors who are members. These ratings are used for seeding at events and Competitor of the Year awards. Competitors earn points ONLY at USBA/WBA sanctioned events. We promote all sanctioned events equally to our members and associates through a variety of ways such as websites, e-mails, flyers, etc.

If you are interested in hosting a USBA/WBA Sanctioned Championship at an event, please contact us; there are many different options for hosting. We do require that the Founders, Advisors, Regional Directors, or an appointed representative be present to run the event according to the guidelines set by the USBA/WBA. For the major championships we require that the USBA/WBA Founders be present to run the event.

There are many options available to promoters of all size events to become part of the USBA/WBA circuit, and we are always ready to work with those promoters who want to bring greater standardization and professionalism to their event. Please contact us for further details on how we can help bring the USBA/WBA to your event!

USBA/WBA Partner Events: The USBA/WBA works with many Martial Arts organizations, associations, and individuals throughout the World. In an effort to offer our members the opportunity to be part of the best events the Martial Arts' community has to offer we have set up the "USBA/WBA Partner Events" program. This program is offered for individuals or organizations that may not be ready to sanction their event with the USBA/WBA, but would still like to get the word out about their event. The USBA/WBA reviews all events to make sure it will not conflict with the USBA/WBA vision or general mission. More information can be found on the "Partner Events" page.
