Pakistan Set to Compete at 2025 IMMAF Youth World Championships

Al Ain Convention Centre, Abu Dhabi | 20–27 July 2025

The Pakistan MMA Federation (PAKMMAF) is proud to announce its official preparation for the 2025 IMMAF Youth World Championships, taking place from 20–27 July at the world-class Al Ain Convention Centre (ADNEC Al Ain) in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

Widely anticipated as the largest youth amateur MMA event in history, this championship will welcome top youth athletes from around the globe to compete for IMMAF gold — and Team Pakistan is ready to rise to the occasion.

Team Pakistan – Ready to Represent

With the youth MMA landscape growing rapidly in Pakistan, this year’s championship provides a crucial opportunity to showcase our next generation of fighters on the world stage. Guided by IMMAF’s globally recognized safety and coaching standards, PAKMMAF is preparing a competitive national youth squad to represent Pakistan across all categories:

• Youth A (16–17 years)

• Youth B (14–15 years)

• Youth C (12–13 years)

• Youth D (10–11 years) – Making its debut this year

Team selection, training camps, and athlete development programs are already underway. Each athlete will be trained in alignment with IMMAF’s youth rules and safety regulations — ensuring Pakistan sends not just warriors, but disciplined ambassadors of the sport.

️ A New Chapter at a New Venue

This year marks a new chapter in the Youth World Championships as the event heads to Al Ain, hosted in collaboration with the UAE MMA Federation — a nation known for its excellence in sports infrastructure and hospitality. The venue, ADNEC Al Ain, promises a professional, athlete-first environment for all participating countries.

With seven days of elite competition, this edition will shine a global spotlight on youth MMA — and Pakistan is determined to make its mark.
