About This Event
Battle Grappling is one of the premier grappling tournaments in the Pacific Northwest. The Battle Grappling Open Tournament is a round-robin, submission-only tournament featuring the best up and coming grapplers in the area!
Battle Open is an opportunity to show your art and your skill on the mats and earn the chance to compete in our paid, pro grappling show, Battle Grappling!
For this event we are looking to select the final entrant to our Pro 155 lbs bracket April 25th! We will be holding one 155 lbs round-robin bracket to select this finalist.
Battle Open will be held on Saturday, April 11th.
Weigh in begins 11 am, rules meeting will be at 12 pm. Matches start after rules.
The event will be hosted at:
Logic Jiu Jitsu
15719 Pacific Ave S Tacoma, WA 98444
Weigh Ins will be held by video on Friday, April the 10th. Final instructions will be sent to the athletes and videos will be accepted at 9 am on Friday, and we will accept weigh in videos until Saturday the 11th.
All athletes may choose to weigh in on Saturday the 11th before their matches.
If an athlete fails to make weight by their match start time they will be disqualified.
All matches are 7 minutes in length.
All brackets are round-robin. This means that each athlete will have a match against each other athlete in that bracket (maximum 4 matches in one division).
To determine bracket progression:
The athlete with the highest point total once all matches in a bracket are complete will be assigned 1st place, with the athlete earning the next highest point total in 2nd place, and so on.
Brackets with 6 or more competitors will be split into two round-robin pools. The top two competitors from each pool will advance to a 4-person single elimination bracket to determine final placement.
Any point ties will be decided by head-to-head match results. If the head-to-head match results were a tie (no submission in regulation time) the athlete with the lowest total match time in regulation competition will be awarded the victory.
