Championship Moves

Any idiot can start a fight, but a champion can spot trouble early and prevent it from escalating. It takes a real champion to keep their mates safe. That's where Championship Moves comes in. On the Championship Moves website you can check out some of the winning moves, like: 

  • The Chef - Distract your mate from a punch-on by offering him some food!
  • The Muzzle - Stop your mate's mouth from getting him into trouble by shutting him up with a well-placed headlock!
  • The Lasso - Hook your wandering mate back in with the rest of you and keep him close at hand!

They're all moves that could stop a fight and maybe even save some lives. At the very least they could keep everyone safe and on the right side of the law. So, when you’re out drinking, look out for your mates and respect everyone’s right to a good time. For more information visit the Championship Moves website.
