Proving Grounds is Washington
State's longest running Submission Only BJJ/Nogi Grappling Tournament. We run
all brackets in a round robin format to give every competitor the most possible
matches (More matches/more learning). Great for adults and children. High level
competition and a guaranteed good time.

In an effort to stay true to our
mission of offering the best possible tournament please note:

1. We will
only be allowing competitors and coaches on the main gym floor. All others will
be asked to remain in the bleachers. This will make for a much smoother and
safer run event.

2. Most "Dominant
Academy" award - This title will be given to the academy (defined by a
single address/location. Not to be mistaken with affiliation/multi locations)
with the greatest number of submission finishes.

**Important message to the academies**

The academy of the registrants must
be EXACTLY the same to add the academy points and to avoid a match between teammates
in the 1st round of a bracket. For example: 'RSU' and 'Ring Sports United' will
NOT be considered as the same academy. You can change your academy by logging
into your account. Also IMPORTANT: ONLY the 'Academy' field in the registration
form will be taken into account for the Award for 'Most Dominant Academy'.
