Gracie Barra CompNet West Canada  Mission Statement

The Gracie Barra Competition Network is at its very core a positive and closely knit organization of athletes. Our tournaments are conducted with the highest level of integrity, camaraderie and sportsmanship, with our athletes, staff, and officials always keeping safety in mind. We strive to be the competitive birthplace and proving grounds of champions -- keeping the legacy alive!

For rules and information go to: http://ibjjf.com/rules/

• All the competitors must wear the full Gracie Barra official uniform and GB rash guard.

• ALL women and kids are allowed to use the GB Pink gi for this competition.

• All kids will have a minimum of 2 matches.

• All kids will warm up together! Please arrive early.

We will be making a couple of small changes beginning with this event to help us comply with the larger Gracie Barra Compnet organization.

• One change of note to our tournament rules effects the youngest competitors in the Tiny Champs and Little Champs 1 age category (Kids born 2014-2017). No submissions will be allowed in any brackets in this age group. Little Champs 2 and older will comply with regular IBJJF rules.

• Our Absolute Adult Class bracket winners will continue to receive a free gi for a first place finish. We will replace the cash prize with sponsorships by the GB Ambassador’s Program to help athletes compete at major events such as Pan Ams, Worlds, and Masters Worlds. More info about this program will be rolled out shortly.
