Combat Science.
The De Bordes Foundation
of Combat Science recognise that situations beyond individual
control may, from time to time, prevent the principal/instructor
from meeting the foundation’s
basic requirements. This, is by no means grounds for exclusion,
however the De Bordes Foundation of Combat Science, reserves
the right to review member group structure and suspend membership
while issues are addressed and rectified.
• Member Group must consist of at least ten active
students, inclusive of the instructor/principal.
• A standardized look,
in terms of student attire will be required.
• Within the first six months of the group’s
existence, the principal must assign and register, at least
one assistant instructor. This individual will be expected
to participate in training programs, set out by the foundation.

to maintain an accurate register, consisting of student
names and attendance records.

of all member group students, for them to become eligible

persons, on the successful completion of a block-training
program for instructors, within a given discipline or core
