In this discipline both hand and foot attacks to the body are permitted but only kicks to the head are allowed in competition.
The scoring system differentiates points based on the weapon and target area, awarding them as follows:
One (1) point for a valid punch to the trunk protector
Two (2) points for a valid kick to the trunk protector
Three (3) points for a valid kick to the head
Four (4) points for a valid turning kick to the trunk protector
Five (5) points for a valid turning kick to the head
Competitors win by points (higher total points at end of bout), points gap (having more than a 20 point lead in the third round), TKO (cannot continue or knocked out opponent), and golden score (the first to score 2 or more points in a deciding 4th round).
Penalties are given as points to the opponent for infringements including stepping out of the ring, falling down, holding/grabbing, attacking a fallen opponent, inaction, and punching to the face.
