## Overview

**Event Type:** Competition

**Description:** Pro Sport Grappling are pleased to bring you our brand new event; the Southwest Submission Only Jiu Jitsu Championships. Following the world-wide growth of this format the Southwest Sub is the regions very first Submission Only Championships under this rule set. This Gi and NoGi event has divisions for all ages and ability levels.
**
TIME**- Doors open 10.00am with first match at 11.00am
**DATE**- Sunday June 1st 2025
**PLACE**- Parish Wharf Leisure Centre, Harbour Rd, Portishead, Bristol BS20 7DD

**FIGHT MORE - PAY LESS
**Same great price but double
the matches! Sounds good? As Bjj Black Belts we, the owners of Pro Sport
 Grappling know how important mat time is and how frustrating it can be
when you only get one match at an event. That’s why for this event we
aim to give all competitors a minimum of 2 matches per division, even if
 you lose your first match! So, for example if you enter both Gi and
NoGi divisions we aim to give you at least 4 matches*. We also discount
the additional division so it’s even better value for money.

**TWO IN A DIVISION**- best of 3 super-fights
**THREE IN A DIVISION**-  IBJJF Round Robin**
**FOUR OR MORE IN A DIVISION**-
 Single elimination with consolation match (if you lose in the first
round we aim to give you an additional match where possible)

Please note that this does not apply to our absolute divisions which remain as the traditional straight knock out format.
