FOR ASSOCIATIONS & NGBS ONLY

Elevant Your Organisation's Mission With BMABA As A Partner Organisation

We work with dozens of NGBs and Associations to help provide end-to-end solutions that save your martial arts association money, time and market capital.

Mission

In A Nutshell

BMABA have been market leaders in technology, research and development, safeguarding, compliance and qualifications for UK martial arts for more than a decade. In that time, as an independent not for profit we’ve won multiple awards, built a membership platform of more than 100,000 independent clubs, instructors and students, and now boast more resources, tools, technology and courses than any other martial arts organisation.

We  want to share that success, with organisations like yours.

We work with NGBs and non-NGB Associations from across the martial arts landscape, big and small, to partner up and offer access to our membership offerings, platform and training as a core part of your membership offering.

How It Works

Here's how it works;

  • 1
    Get In Touch

    Start by getting in touch with the team. We can schedule a confidential, no obligation discussion with our Chief Executive Officer, Giovanni. This will help you 'scope out' the initial opportunity, and to establish an initial core contact here at BMABA.

  • 2
    Confirm Specifics

    We'll offer bespoke trade rates for your organisation, based on the volume of instructors, students or any other users you are considering registering through us. There's no obligation, it's confidential, and you can pick and choose - either the entire instructor base and insurances, or just a handful of your instructors with no insurance - it's your organisation, so it's your choice. We'll confirm fully the full service and answer any specific questions, along with a pricebook for you to use to plan ahead or build into your model.

    You Bake BMABA Membership Into Your Offering

    Rather than the risk of hemorrhaging members and having to recreate our extensive offering, you can focus on your organisation's mission - be that NGB status, competitions or 'on the mats' development. In whatever way you see fit, you can then pass on BMABA membership to your members, in partnership with BMABA. This ensures they get the best of both worlds; access to our full range of resources and tools, and membership to you. For your NGB or NGO, this means the attractiveness of your membership offering explodes overnight with immediate access to our industry leading and multi-award winning courses, qualifications, software, guidance and more.

    We Continue To Tailor The Experience

    We'll work with you to build special integrations to make the process as seamless as possible. From automatic registration forms for your website through to bespoke system notices, controls and features in MyBMABA to make clear you are the appropriate Governing Body, and we're a Partner Organisation - we'll work with you to Tailor Make the right solution.

Frequently asked questions

What does it cost and what are the payment terms?

We’ll provide a bespoke, heavily discounted trade price for your organisation when we know a little bit more about what you need, and how much you’ll be using BMABA (in terms of the quantities of members joining).

There’s no obligation to accept any price and it is all in confidence, so you can contact us to discuss this further.

Outsource your back-office admin and compliance to BMABA, and focus on what you do best.

Most NGB and NGO partners lean on our partnership memberships to outsource the core burden of expensive compliance, regulatory monitoring, CPD, Safeguarding and other core provisions. 

Safeguarding

Our expert safeguarding officers can help your NGB take the weight of safeguarding oversight and case management, providing direct assistance and escalation to your instructor, and supporting your DSLs in the decision making process.

Compliance

Our systems and dedicated staff can take care of receiving, validating and flagging instructor by instructor compliance. Whether it's insurance, safeguarding, DBS and PVG checks, or something else - we can step in and provide a fully staffed, professionally trained team to help.

NGB Validation

We can help your NGB or Pre-NGB show proper compliance and checking, through our audits and checks of your organisational standards and that of your members, helping support grant funding applications or NGB applications.

Club Colours & SCiMA

All of your instructors can access our free Club Colours award which offers the industry's highest levels of accreditation, and automatic certification through Safeguarding Code in Martial Arts (SCiMA).

Support

Whether your NGO or NGB needs strategic support, or perhaps your club has practical support needs around technology, marketing, safeguarding or compliance; we'll happily help with the 'stuff we do well' but we'll point them back to you for NGB specific queries.
