# Tap Cancer Out 2026 Salt Lake City BJJ Open

> Competition in Salt Lake City, Utah, United States | February 28, 2026

## Overview

**Event Type:** Competition

**Series:** Tap Cancer Out

**Description:** **PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU ACCEPT PERMISSIONS TO SYNC YOUR SMOOTHCOMP ACCOUNT!! If you do not do this, your results will NOT show up in your account.**

**THROUGH FRIDAY**- All competitors will appear as APPROVED and PAID.
**LATE FRIDAY NIGHT / SATURDAY MORNING**- All competitors will appear as UNAPPROVED and will only be APPROVED when they check-in. Also, competitors who owe a registration fee at the door will appear as UNPAID. If you chose a fundraiser ticket and did not raise $250 or more, you will owe $100.

**WE WILL NOT BE MAKING BRACKETS UNTIL EVERYONE HAS:**
1) Checked-in
2) Weighed-in
3) We are ready to deploy the division to a ring.

**WE DO NOT POST MAT ASSIGNMENTS EITHER.**We don't know where we are assigning divisions until we know when a ring has become available.

**ALL 4-5, 6-7, AND 8-9 YEAR OLD COMPETITORS (POTENTIALLY SOME 10-11 OR BEYOND) WILL BE DEPLOYED RIGHT AT 9AM.**

Making brackets any earlier too often gives bad information. I PROMISE you, this is the most effective way to host an efficient and on-time event where we only have to make a bracket once, instead of pulling out / putting in competitors as people miss weight or dont' show up.

Once competitors are uploaded to Smoothcomp the Thursday before the tournament, ALL ATHLETES WILL SHOW AS "UNAPPROVED" UNTIL THEY ARRIVE ON SATURDAY AND CHECK-IN! If you've been loaded into Smoothcomp, that means we are expecting you to compete in this event.

We achieve this by hosting the most philanthropic BJJ tournaments in the world.
