How Does an Alabama Combative Sports Promoter Bond Work?
As with all surety bonds, a promoter bond creates a legal contract between three parties:
- Principal: You, the promoter filing the bond
- Obligee: The Alabama Athletic Commission requiring the bond
- Surety: The provider issuing the bond
This holds you financially responsible for upholding all rules and regulations of the Alabama Athletic Commission.
If you break the bond terms, harmed parties can file claims. The surety will pay valid claims up to the bond amount, but you are ultimately responsible for refunding the surety.
How Do I Renew My Bond?
This bond expires annually. To renew your promoter bond, simply pay your renewal invoice when prompted.
We’ll begin contacting you by phone and email 90 days before the expiration date.
