ARRIVAL TIME

You only have to be at the event 1 hour before you fight to sign in, warm up and be ready to be weighed in. You don't have to be there all day, however you are welcome to arrive early and stay as long as you would like. However please keep an eye on the times as they are dynamic and will change throughout the day, they could get earlier.

FIGHT TIMES

We will only know fight times once registration has closed and brackets have been created. We estimate to have this information around 4th June.

RULES

We follow the IBJJF rules click here for their rulebook

MERGES

We will be looking at the competitor list on Check Day and will start to make any necessary merges. Ideally there should be at least 4 in a category in case someone does not show up, so fights can still go ahead. You also have the opportunity to merge/move yourself into another category on Check Day.

Moving Age Category for Adults - You can only move yourself to younger age groups. Weight Category - You can only move yourself to heavier categories or to ones you know you can definitely make weight for.
