⚖️ WEIGH-INS

About 30 minutes before the first fight, the athlete will check his/her weight with the Gi. You are only allowed to complete the weigh in when your name is visible on the screen names "current matches". There is only one opportunity to check the weight.

If the competitor does not make the weight, they will be immediately disqualified (Adults + Masters). For kids & juveniles we will try and move you if its possible. Please make sure that you are in the correct weight division. There is a sauna in Nacka Dojos training center across the street of the arena and it will be warm from 08.00. You can not change divisions at the weigh-in, if you do not make your designated division, no changes will be accepted on the tournament day, no refunds.

All athletes should fight and weigh-in with the Gi.

HOW WE MERGE GROUPS FOR KIDS, JUVENILES ADULTS & MASTERS

We require at least two fighters in one group for the weightclass to happen. We will merge/combine groups if necessary. We will do this according to described standard.

1. We will combine two weight classes within the same age (we will try to avoid to big weight difference) 2. We will combine two weight classes with the age group below (Master 3>>2>>1>>Adult) 3. If no option above is possible we will cancel the weight class and give a refund

It is always your responsibility to check the brackets when they are published and cancel if you feel you have been moved to a new class that you can't accept. Normal dates for refunds apply.
