Rules
The Autumn Open will be competed under IBJJF rules, but without advantages. We believe that you should not be penalised for preventing a takedown or pass, and escaping a submission attempt - no matter how close it gets. These can also be subjective, awarded by the referees discretion.
By removing advantages, you are merited for completing your passes, takedowns and submissions, and that's it!
Official ruleset can be found here.
Rules Meeting - 8:30am
Compete in both Gi and No-Gi and get your second division at a discounted rate.
Early bird: 2nd Division = £15
Normal Reg: 2nd Division = £20
Late Reg: Second Division = £25
We are committed to promoting females in our sport - so that's why for the Autumn Open, All female juvenile and adult divisions (including masters/seniors) are discounted by 50%!
Note: this excludes cash prize absolute and not subject to additional discount for black/brown belts.
If you're entering the elite division (brown and black belt) in GI or No-Gi, email us or message us on socials to get a discount code for 50%.
Note: not available for absolute divisions.
Where possible - we will offer a second match to competitors who lose the first in their divisions (exc absolutes). This will not always be possible, for example, if divisions have odd numbers, athletes get injured etc but we will always aim to do our best to make consolation matches happen.
That's right! £20 to enter – 100% of entry fee will be added to prize pot. The bigger the division, the bigger the prize!
Absolute division is an additional division for those already signed up for Gi and/or No-Gi divisions already. Absolute divsions cannot be signed up to on their own.
Rules meeting for athletes and coaches - 8:30am
You must weigh in at least 1 hour before your division start time.
There are no allowances. If you miss weight, you cannot be moved up a weight class.
We see competition as an opportunity for athletes to test themselves against different opposition. That is why, where there are less than 3 athletes in a division, we will look to merge. This will be by weight or by age. We will inform you if we merge your division.
If you are not happy with your merged division, or if we cannot find a suitable match, you will be fully refunded.
Divisions of 3 athletes will be run round robin style.
