Slaps must follow strict rules, including using an open hand, no pivoting or stepping, and no flinching. Any violations, such as clubbing or stepping, are enforced by referees with penalties.
Competitors undergo physical exams, hearing tests, and random steroid testing before and after matches. On-site EMTs and medics evaluate competitors during bouts if necessary, and no competitor is allowed to fight within 60 days of their last competition.
All matches are held on 2.5 inches of padded foam flooring for knockdown safety. Competitors are required to wear no metal piercings or gauges, have cotton inserted in their ears to protect against eardrum damage, and undergo mandatory training to ensure legal and safe slaps.
SlapFIGHT employs three trained referees at each bout: one behind the barrel to monitor strikes and flinches, one kneeling to watch for steps and pivots, and one overseeing the overall action and replays. Additionally, a sanctioning representative handles disputes, ensures fairness, and maintains safety throughout the competition.
