I have spent this week reviewing the current athletic commission insurance mandates to prepare our formal request for legislative review. We are now drafting a comparison document that maps West Virginia regulations against states where Muay Thai is already sanctioned. Expect an update once the first round of inquiries is submitted to the relevant oversight committees.

The current level of interest has reached a point where I am now coordinating meetings with representatives to discuss the necessary legislative adjustments. I am currently finalizing a formal proposal that outlines equitable insurance requirements to present to the athletic commission.

My son has to drive 3 hours just to get a good training session in because we cant have real fights here. Its nonsense.
Been training for years and tired of going out of state. Its time to stop treating muay thai like its illegal crime.
About time someone did something about this. So many people want this here.
THATS RIGHT. Keep the money in WV and stop forcing people to go to PA just to compete. Let them fight.
the insurance fees are just a way to kill the sport. just tax it like boxing and be done with it already.

WV needs all the revenue and tourists it can get why not allow competitors to enter the state compete here and give the youth something else to work towards other than drug use
