Rules
All Age Divisions from Kids, Juveniles, Adults, and Masters, - all belt ranks are welcome to compete.
Medals will be awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd places in each division. Every registered competitor will receive a complimentary tournament t-shirt.
Our brackets are designed to provide 2 or more matches for willing participants in their divisions if possible. When brackets have 2 competitors, they will compete in a best 2 out of 3 to determine the champion. For brackets of 3 competitors, they will compete in a true round-robin and the champion will be determined by the number and types of wins. For brackets of 4 or more competitors, there may be 2 or more matches for each competitor. All competitors who do not have anyone registered in their division will automatically be awarded a gold medal. We are NOT doing consolation matches at this event. More information will be sent to single competitors as the brackets are being completed.
Juvenile athletes will compete in their own division, but they’ll have the option to compete in the Adult division — as long as they meet belt and weight requirements and provide a signed waiver with parental authorization.
No Open Division for white belts and kids. Juvenile, Adults and Master only! Blue & Purple Belts – you may compete ONLY if you qualified in the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place of your weight division. All Brown & Black Belts sign-up after your division is complete. NO EXTRA COST!!
