WEIGHT CLASSES

GI WEIGHT **Weights are WITH Gi **

For our 2011 series of events we will not be having predefined weight classes or age groupings for the youth and junior competitors. Our past events have shown us that predefined weight classes and age groupings are a limiting factor in getting athletes the best competition scenarios. The brackets will be finalized and posted for competitor check in, the same as a previous events. We will continue to assemble brackets using similar thresholds (for example 10 pounds depending on age) as we have in the past. We know that this change will prove to be a benefit to the athletes and if there are any questions you are welcome to contact us by email to jeff@leapllc.com.

TEAM POINTS PROGRAM

This is the outline for awarding team points at The Revolution BJJ/Submission Wrestling Tournaments.

In an effort to encourage and reward participation of more experienced competitors, 1st place poitns will be awarded on a scale depending on the skill level of the divisions. 2nd place points and 3rd place points will remain constant, regardless of the skill level. Only adult brackets will be counted toward the academy points. If an athlete is representing more than one academy the points will be split between the two academies. If a blue belt is representing BJJ123/ToughGuysABC and wins his division, BJJ123 will receive 5 points and ToughGuysABC will receive 5 point. There will be an award for Gi, an award for NoGi, and an award for Overall Team Total. The awards will be per tournament and be for the academy to keep.
