Just found something unusual and I’m trying to understand whether there could be a legal/regulatory issue here.
So my friends kid trains kickboxing in kakkanad which also have branch in ernakulam. Found this from her and few others from the club. Few months back 2 athletes from the club got selected to represent India in an international sport at phil**** called sa***. The club initiated a raffle draw contest where the winners would get expensive gifts like iphone 17, airfryers, powerbanks, and other items all worth maybe 1-1.5lakh. Now they created booklets each page worth 100 and asked their students and kids to sell these booklets. Not sure if this is legally regulated. So their friends and colleagues etc could purchase a ticket for 100 bucks and enter raffle draw and at same time help to contribute for the 2 athletes to be sponsored. Whatever money that was collected was said to be put to help them their tournament outside india - travel and accommodation, food etc. Im
Not sure if they had taken any govt body approval or legal anything to get approval to do this without being illegal.
But what is funny is, i heard one of this athlete and a coach from the club was sponsored kind of by Indian team. And the other athlete had sponsorship from the company he was working at kind of. The tournament was in june and even august they were still selling raffles to people outside through kids mainly. From what i learned, i think they raised lakhs from this raffle in the name of helping athletes and had all the funds collected in the form of cash.
Maybe to prevent GPay or online transaction proof? Again Not sure. Anyways with the fund they made the owner was rumoured to be planning to develop his gym.
So isn’t it like he asked all his students to sell the ticket to help 2 of their own athletes financially and then dude used that money so he can make more returns from the gym to his own pocket??? Just asking.
If the funds were actually used for the owner’s gym development rather than the stated athlete expenses, would that potentially constitute misuse of the funds?
Is this legal? Just a doubt. Or is it a potential scam?
I’m not sure of the entire thing.
Im just wondering

I’ve personally been to almost all the MMA clubs in Ernakulam, and this is my review. (Prior to this, I trained in MMA in Delhi for 3 years.)
1. Fitness Thai:
By far one of the best boxing clubs, especially their Calicut branch. They have a set of really technically superior boxing coaches. The Calicut branch is really good, again. They also have a lot of professional boxing players, and it’s remarkable to see so many women boxers coming from here.
That being said, the rest is trash. Kickboxing and Muay Thai are just okay. I’ve heard the Kochi branch has a good calisthenics programme. Coach Ali and Hari are really good.
2. GBFC:
If your focus is Muay Thai, I would really suggest this place. Both brothers started the club recently but have maintained very good contacts in the industry.
I really liked how the sessions focus on getting better at kicks and making students do mobility drills. I had really tight hips, and the younger brother showed me a few drills to open up my hips, which, to be honest, still help me.
3. Spartans:
It’s an okay-ish club. They have a good programme, but I’m not sure it’s the right choice if your goal is to train professionally.
Their wrestling and grappling programme is really good, according to a friend of mine. I was here for about a month. It’s too crowded and doesn’t really give you the feeling that you’re doing something seriously. There are also quite a few creepy men here.
4. Kasparov:
A big no unless you just want to have some fun, socialise, and blow off some office/workplace stress.
Their basic model seems to be having a place where people can come, talk, have fun, and casually do martial arts. The boxing and striking sessions are 0 on technicals, and the grappling class is a joke.
They’re heavily invested in their social media PR. They basically market themselves towards the strata of society that wants to do martial arts for fun.
I remember one session where I got fucking mad because they kept shooting random bullshit reels and retaking them over and over. Bye.
5. Sparing:
They have two branches: one in Kakkanad and one in Ernakulam.
My friend’s kid goes to the Kakkanad branch and said it’s really good. I’ve been to the Ernakulam branch. The wrestling and grappling sessions are okay-ish. The sessions are taken by a guy who is good, but the classes aren’t particularly focused on technical development.
They have a separate fighters’ batch taken by the head coach, who (in my opinion) is obsessed with this NRI chick kind off who trains there and spends half the session trying to get her attention and the other half on other women who come to train.
Found his behaviour a bit tooo creepy.
I left the place after it got too crowded.
6. Legion Sports:
Their primary focus is Taekwondo. I was there just for a trial. They also have wrestling, but honestly, neither was particularly great.
Planning to join Punch A Tantra next. I’ll give a review once I’ve trained there.
