# UKGCC 7 - BJJ Open (Gi, No-Gi &amp; Teams)

> Competition in High Wycombe, England, United Kingdom | October 17, 2026

## Overview

**Event Type:** Competition

**Description:** We believe in fairness and flexibility. Here’s how our policy works:

The Early Bird Offer is active until 4 weeks prior.

All registrations and payments must be completed via Smoothcomp before the deadline. Door payments are only accepted for spectators.

🥋 Free entry for brown and black belts in weight class divisions. Please, reach out via email or any other contact methods listed in Smoothcomp to get your free entry voucher. This offer is not applicable to Warriors League and Quintet Cash entries.

We want every athlete to compete at least twice whenever possible. Here’s how we make it happen:

Our goal when merging divisions is to ensure competitors can have a match, while maintaining fairness and safety at all times. A merge may be proposed when there are insufficient competitors in a division, but no competitor is ever required to accept a merge.

For adults, a “fair” merge typically means:

Male and female adult divisions are never merged.

For children, our priority is to offer a match only when it is safe to do so.

We aim to:

As with adult divisions, all kids’ merge proposals may be refused, with the same refund policy applying.

**Register and pay as early as possible!**

Early registration not only saves you money but also helps attract more opponents — most competitors prefer signing up for divisions that already have entries.

Don’t wait —**lead the pack and sign up now!**
Our generous refund policy gives you peace of mind if your plans change.

Team sign-ups are simple:

If your team can’t be completed before registrations close, you may move into individual weight divisions — the same refund and cancellation policy applies.

The 2-Match Guarantee also applies to Team Divisions.

📏 Weight classes are listed on the registration form.

We have available a studio with a roll up mat.

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 9.00 am.

Kids divisions will go first, followed by the Adults.

Warriors League and Quintet are the last ones to run.

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 will shift due to submissions or no-shows, by one hour or more.**

Be at the mat, weighed in, and ready to go 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**.

Weigh in at least 60 minutes our actual match time (On event day, check you match time regularly on Smoothcomp)

0.5kg weigh allowance — missing weight = disqualification (no refund).

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

**Weigh-in is also available the evening befor**e to all competitors, from 7 PM to 9 PM (the exact time will be confirmed with the venue closer to the date). 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.

If you miss weight at the evening weigh in you can opt to move to a higher weight bracket or try again the following day. In which case, the rules here above apply.

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.
