ISKA UK sanctioned a total of 25 events in the fourth quarter of 2009 which included the busiest weekend of the year 28th-29th November with 7 events sanctioned over 2 days. ISKA UK Officials and Referees where stretched to the limit but coped admirably.
Sanctions included 2 European title fights and 27 British, National and regional title matches.

The ISKA UK MMA division launched this year is developing nicely with 4 MMA cards staged in the last quarter and several more planned for 2120
