DORA Approves
Sanctioning Bodies for Amateur Combative Sporting Events
In the 2004 legislative session, the Colorado Legislature passed Senate Bill 04-045, which bans "Toughperson" style boxing events in Colorado. The law requires all combative sporting events, such as boxing, kickboxing or mixed martial arts events, to comply with one of three regulatory options:
- Professional events must be licensed and regulated by the Boxing Commission.
- Amateur events must be approved and regulated by a nationally recognized sanctioning organization recognized by the Executive Director of DORA.
- Events not falling into these categories must comply with health and safety rules approved by DORA.
Pursuant to §12-10-107.5(13), C.R.S., DORA has recognized the following national sanctioning bodies to approve events in Colorado:
- Amateur Boxing: Golden Gloves, Silver Gloves, Police Athletic League, Intercollegiate Amateur Boxing Association, USA Boxing
- Amateur
Kickboxing: International Sport Karate Association, International
Kickboxing Federation, and the World Kickboxing/ Karate Association.
On September
30, 2004, the Department of Regulatory Agencies adopted Health
and Safety Standards for the regulation of amateur events
pursuant to §12-10-107.5(13), C.R.S.
(4 CCR 740-2)
The Office of Boxing licenses 4 professions in the sports of professional boxing and kickboxing. The Office regulates all professional events in the state of Colorado with the exception of events held on Indian reservations.
Activities include:
Reviewing applications for licensure for Boxing and Kickboxing, approving matches, supervising events, developing and promulgating rules.
The Office disciplines licensees for violation of the Colorado Professional Boxing Safety Act and developes rules to prevent unauthorized or illegal events from taking place. The Office utilizes a national database for tracking suspensions of licensees across the country.
The Office communicates regularly with various participants throughout the country who are interested in participating in events in Colorado. The Office communicates with the Boxing Commission to keep Commission members apprised of the boxing environment in Colorado.
