This event is for both kids and adults. Please enter in your age,weight and belt groups. When we have a clear indication of who is coming we will make appropriate brackets. You will be guaranteed two matches plus however many there is time for on the challenge mat. If there is no appropriate matches for your level, age, weight etc, we are sure that you can find some matches in the challenge event.
We will be make the fairest match ups on the day. Don't stress out about weight. Just put your regular weight after a good breakfast. That's how we want you to show up. Again we will make the closest groupings on the day.
