AXAYA — O-Sport Combat Hybrid Relay

The official WOF format brings one Fighter, one Lifter and one Racer together in a three-person team. This interactive guide follows the supplied rulebook and marks every unconfirmed event detail as TBC.

Three-person team

A Fighter contests Combat, a Lifter contests Strong Fit and a Racer contests Obstacle Racing.

Three equal phases

Every phase has equal value and awards one team point to its winner.

Two phases win

The first team to win at least two phases wins; a 1–1–1 result activates the tie-resolution system.

Official AXAYA format

One team. Three equal phases.

The WOF rulebook defines AXAYA as one O-Sport Combat Hybrid Relay. Combat, Strong Fit and Obstacle Racing are its three competition phases—not three sports governed by O-Sport European Federation. Each team assigns one specialist athlete to each phase.

Combat performance

Combat

Team role: Fighter

Format

A single three-minute round conducted under the general IMMAC framework together with WOF-specific rules.

How the phase is won

Victory may be by KO, TKO, submission, decision or disqualification. A win earns one team point.

  • Judges assess effective striking, grappling, takedowns, control, submission attempts, defence, technical superiority and effective activity.
  • Permitted areas include punches, kicks, permitted knee strikes, clinching, takedowns, throws, body control, ground control, positioning, submission and permitted ground strikes.
  • Required equipment includes WOF-approved amateur MMA gloves, mouthguard, a groin protector for male athletes and any protection required by the Medical Committee.

Competition-specific note

The combat referee may stop the contest at any time to protect an athlete’s health.

Complete AXAYA rulebook

Five sections. All 15 chapters.

The source chapters are grouped into five practical sections so officials and teams can find the relevant rules without navigating a wall of separate boxes.

Source-numbering note: the WOF document labels both “Valid Repetition” and “NO REP” as Article 32 and then continues at Article 34. This guide preserves that numbering rather than silently rewriting the source.
