      Chuck Norris' World Combat League announces the addition of the New Jersey Tigers to the Eastern Conference of their combat martial arts fighting league currently broadcast nationally on the Versus Network. <br><br>The team will be coached by famed multi-art fighting champion Danny "Tiger" Schulmann -- a winner of more than 100 competitions, and now a successful martial arts entrepreneur with more than 40 schools, located in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and Florida. <br><br>The New Jersey Tigers will be competing with the New York, Miami and St. Louis teams in the WCL's Eastern Conference. A season of matches is slated to begin in late-August, followed by a playoff event which will determine which of these teams will ultimately face the top Western Conference team for the 2008 League Championship. <br><br>WCL Commissioner Cory Schafer comments, "We're excited about the addition of a New Jersey team. It is certain to create some really exciting conference rivalries. And I'm personally looking forward to working with Coach Schulmann, whose experience and expertise is recognized and respected industrywide." <br><br>About the WCL:  <br><br>-- Founded in 2005, The World Combat League is the brainchild of Martial  Arts icon Chuck Norris. Like the NBA or NFL, the WCL is made up of professional martial arts teams representing eight American cities. Each WCL team features six fighters -- five men and one woman -- who have been recruited from three different disciplines: Kickboxing, Karate, and Tae Kwon Do.  Each fighter holds a spot in one of six  predetermined weight classes so that any league team can compete on  even ground against any other league team.  The WCL's combat ring was designed without any ropes or screens in order to remove all visual obstructions for audience members. <br><br>Part of the fastest growing category in sports -- Mixed Martial Arts -- the WCL is unique in that its contests emphasize stand up combat, the thrill of rooting for your favorite team and the intense action of short 3 minute bouts. The WCL's rules penalizing passivity and its match design provide sports fans with an unprecedented level of "full throttle" martial arts fighting action.
