Rules
Black Belts compete for free as part of AVA's early 10-year anniversary celebration. Register in any Black Belt division without paying, then email us at contact@avagrappling.com to confirm you're competing, and we'll approve your registration.
The structure of the rules and format reflects that. Round robin format means every athlete competes against everyone in their group.
Not all wins are equal. A submission in regulation is worth the most points and the athlete with the most points wins the division. How you win matters more than how many times you win.
STANDARD DIVISIONS — Gi & Nogi · Podium earns athlete and team points toward the Season Rankings.
Matched by age, belt & weight class.
Spectator Entry per day: $15 for adults and $10 for children 12 and under. This includes family and friends. Competitors aged 17 and under may bring ONE parent or guardian at no additional cost.
