MEDALISTS – IMMAF Senior Asian Open Championships and Junior World Championships Gold: $7000 Silver: $3500 Bronze: $700, $700 BEST MALE Asian Open: $1400 Junior Worlds: $1400 BEST FEMALE Asian Open: $1400 Junior Worlds: $1400 BEST TEAM PRIZES – Based on combined Asian Open & Junior World Championships medal tables 1st Place: $7000 2nd Place: $2800 3rd Place: $700 Both Beijing tournaments are open events, welcoming elite amateurs from all around the world. The junior event will be IMMAF’s first Junior World Championships open to athletes age 18-20, providing better opportunity for rising stars to shine against competitors within a similar range of experience. Junior Championships also create a safer competition environment for younger adults who have not yet reached their physical peak. The Senior Asian Open is open to over 18s with no age limits. Athletes must apply through their IMMAF affiliated national federation. IMMAF CEO Densign White said: “On behalf of myself and IMMAF President Mr. Brown, I must once again thank CIMMAF President Mr. Wei for the incredible donation. This has great meaning to IMMAF with tangible implications for dedicated amateur competitors who will travel to Beijing from across the globe, many from regions where no funding is provided. We do not fail to recognise the effort and sacrifices of every athlete, coach and national leader that passes through the IMMAF championships. We are extremely happy that for the first time IMMAF can give more back as a means to provide added incentive for new competitors to be welcomed on to this great platform and for our returning veterans to sustain their development as amateur athletes.”]]>
