We’re not using predefined weight classes. Instead, we’ll create brackets based on the weights and experience levels submitted during registration. This ensures the best possible matchups for all participants. Just provide your lowest walking weight when you sign up, and we’ll take care of the rest!

We do our best to ensure everyone has fair and competitive matchups. In the rare instance we can’t find a suitable opponent for you, we’ll notify you ahead of time and provide other options or offer a refund if necessary.

It’s $10 for all spectators—except for your own kids, who can cheer you on for free!

This is a round-robin format, so the number of matches depends on the number of participants in your bracket. We aim to guarantee at least two matches per division.

Absolutely. This event is designed to create a welcoming and supportive environment, especially for first-time competitors. Everyone in that room remembers their first competition—it’s nerve-wracking but also empowering. You’ll walk away more confident, no matter the outcome. Plus, you’ll have a whole community cheering you on!

Submission-only, round-robin. Gi and no-gi divisions will be available.

We are proud to create an inclusive space for all participants. We will have a separate open gender bracket to ensure fair and equitable matchups.
