[IBJJF Rules](http://ibjjf.com/rules/)

[UKGCC Rules](https://ukgrapplers.com/rules/)

Address: Judo Centre, Barry Cl, High Wycombe HP12 4UE

On Sunday, we have the venue available up until 4 PM. That's why for this event the maximum number of entries is limited to 200. Sign up early to avoid disappointment and save money!

The centre offers a large dojo area where we will have 3 fighting mats, along with the podium, weigh in stations and medics.

Friends and family can watch your match from the bleachers positioned just in front of the mats.

Upstairs you will find a lovely bar with tables and windows overlooking the dojo on the one side, and a balcony with a view of the heath on the other side.

There is free parking on site and additional spaces are available on the neighbouring roads.

Doors will open at 8.30 am for competitors and spectators.

Weigh in is available from 8.30 am, but you can weigh in at anytime during the day.

Matches will begin at 9.15 am.

Kids divisions will go first, followed by the Adults.

Mergers happen after registration closes.

Arrive at least 90 mins before your match.
For first matches of the day, arriving at doors open is fine.

Match times update live on Smoothcomp — check regularly. Brackets may shift due to submissions or no-shows.

Be at the mat, weighed in, and ready when called. You’ll be called 3 times — no-shows are disqualified with no refund.

If your opponent no-shows, you’ll receive a coupon for a future event.

Weigh-ins are open all day.
Gi is not required to weigh in.

No weight allowance — missing weight = disqualification (no refund).

You can change weight class within the edit window on Smoothcomp.

Weigh-in is available the evening before, from 7:30 PM to 9:30 PM. A 1.5 kg allowance is applied for the evening weigh-in to account for the natural increase in weight that occurs later in the day.

Registration closes one week before the event. No same-day registrations accepted. All registrations and payments must be completed via Smoothcomp before the deadline. Door payments are only accepted for spectators.

For experienced grapplers hunting for Champion Belts, we've created the UKGCC Warriors League Absolute NoGi division, which will follow the [UKGCC ruleset](https://ukgrapplers.com/rules/). This ruleset prioritises fighting for submissions over positional control.

**Champion belt for the winner!**

All grapplers can sign up regardless of experience and belt.

UKGCC ruleset in short:

Please keep in mind that this is an elite division. It often features seasoned competitors and coaches aiming for the belt.

If you haven’t competed in an absolute division before or don’t have significant competition experience, we recommend sitting this one out.
