New Sub Series Season and Changes
We are excited to start up the new season and are going to changing things up a bit for the new season.
There are very few changes for the kids:
4/5 yr olds play the game like before. 2 x 1 min rounds
6/7 yr old start seated with legs crossed (Criss Cross) and no subs. 2 min rounds
8/9 yr old start standing and basic subs are allowed ( Straight Arm Bar, Gi Chokes, Triangle, Mata Leao) 3 min rounds
10/11 yr old White Belts start standing and basic subs are allowed 3 min rounds
10/11 yr old Grey Belt and higher start standing and all ibjjf subs allowed ( Kimura, Americana) 3 min rounds
12/13 yr old all belts start standing and all ibjjf subs allowed 4 min rounds
14/15 yr old all belts start standing and all ibjjf subs allowed 5 min rounds
Adults will be changing our format to 5 person round robin sorted into weight classes with the 5 lightest people together then the next 5 people etc. It is likely there will be one or two divisions of 4 people but we will not do a 6 person round robin. Experience levels will be split into White belts (under 2 yr experience) and Blue or higher (2 yr or more exp)
These matches will be 4/5 min long (white belt 4/Colored belt 5) and have no points. Winners of the matches will be decided by submission or DQ (know your illegal subs) Rules set will follow ibjjf Blue Belt LINK HERE pg 29
Winners of the division will be decided by who has the most match wins.
Win a match equals 5 points
Tie a match = 3 points
Lose a match = 1 point
September 21 event we will do doing Adults No Gi only.
November 30 will be Gi only
February 1 will be Gi only
April 11 will be No Gi only

Best of luck in the new season,
