Already in 20th years, in order to weapon the national police with attack and protection techniques, Spiridonov, Koronovskyy, Oznobyshyn, Yakovlev, Solonevich continued to work on this rind of sport.
On November 16, 1938 combat sambo, called "Soviet free fight style”, was ratified by Sports committee of USSR, and since 1939 the seminars and meetings of trainers have been held.
