NEW BRACKET SYSTEM
Adults & Kids division:
We are working on a new bracketing system that will provide kids with more matches.
Our brackets are designed to provide 2 or more matches for willing participants in their divisions.
When brackets have 2 competitors, they will compete in a best 2 out of 3 to determine the champion.
For brackets of 3 competitors, they will compete in a true round robin and the champion will be determined by the number and types of wins.
For brackets of 4 or more competitors, there will be 2 or more matches for each competitor.
No more 1 and done!
Open division:
No Open Division for white belts and kids. Adults and Master only!
Blue & Purple Belts – you may compete ONLY if you qualified in the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place of your weight division.
All Brown & Black Belts sign-up after your division is complete.
NO EXTRA COST!!
