BRACKETS

FORMAT and PROTOCOL:

Jiu-Jitsu League Germany tournaments follow Round Robin formatting.

For divisions with 5 or less people we will follow a true round Robin format. Everyone has a match against everyone.

For divisions with 6 or more people we will follow a multi stage round robin format, dividing competitors into multiple round robin brackets.

That means if you compete in both Gi and NoGi, you could get 8 plus fights. This allows you to compete against so many different people, giving you the experience you deserve! All Jiu-Jitsu League Germany events follow the traditional points structure but without advantages! We are also very legal submission friendly!

Brackets can be combined into one bracket if there are not enough registrations.
