NAS Australian Championships

8.30pm on Fox Sports 3


QUOTE
Australian martial arts is about to receive its biggest boost ever with the upcoming national television broadcast of the National All Styles (NAS) Australian Championships.

NAS struck an historic deal with Fox Sports that will see the NAS Australian Championships beamed into over two million households, pubs and clubs nationwide on PRIME TIME on February 13 at 8.30pm on Fox Sports 3.

The broadcast will feature non-stop fighting action between Australia’s best NAS competitors, plus an array of demonstrations from the country’s leading instructors.

“This is an historic event,” says NAS President Silvio Morelli. “It puts NAS right up there with boxing, cricket, rugby, tennis and other sports being broadcast nationally on Fox Sports. We will now be able to show-off the excitement of NAS to a national audience.”

The event will be commentated by the world’s leading ringside commentary duo, “The Voice” Michael Schiavello and “The Hammer” Mark Castagnini, who have called the fight shots on Fox Sports for the past ten years, and international events for New Zealand, US and Canadian pay-per-view.

Anyone from the ACT area might be interested to know that the ACT Male Team Sparring will be on this. We lost (*sniff*) but we had them for the first couple of bouts.

Watching it be filmed was funny, the guy commentating kept having to glance at his notes as he was talking to make sure he had the right info hee hee.

I watched the NAS on Fox last night. While I did see 1 or 2 ok fighters, overall I was not impressed.

I was at my local bowling club with some karate people. Some of it was shameful and would have been better not being shown.

It basically looked to me like the USA stuff we get on fox sometimes. All flashy coloured gi's. Gymnastic demonstrations. banghead.gif

Actually the Aikido demonstrations were ok and the Goju one but thats about it.

I am sure that many people on this forum who compete in NAS will disagree with me.

But as an outsider give me Thai Boxing on Fox any day.
