Uniform Guidelines

UNIFORM GUIDELINES

All members of the Maududo Federation must adhere to the following rules regarding their uniform, specifically:

1. All pant cuffs must be hemmed (no rolling of pant cuffs or cuffs that drag on the floor will be allowed).
2. The jacket cuff may be turned under once, not rolled over (as not to obstruct the view of Chevrons on a black belt uniform).
3. DO NOT wear long sleeves or long pants that will extend beyond the hem of sleeves or pants.
4. Uniforms must be washed on a regular basis.
5. Patches must be placed on the uniform in accordance with the diagrams below.

• • Patches are to be centered on the sleeve.
  • There is a 1/2” space between the shoulder seem and the first patch.
  • Each subsequent patch is placed 1/4” from the previous patch.
  • Academic Achiever stars are placed in rows of four with a maximum of four rows (16 stars) allowed on the uniform – centered under the Academic Achiever patch.

During approved times, only Maududo/Martial Arts America t-shirts can be worn in lieu of the uniform top. 

BELTS:

1. Rank belts must be tied so that the tips are of equal length.
2. For Teen/Adult colored belts, black tips must be worn on the right side and red tips on the left.
3. For black belts, "your name" must be worn on the right side and "Maududo Federation" on the left side.

Remember to never let the belt hit the ground you work hard for it and it needs to be respected.
