Once again we will be returning to Bonney Lake High School for this event.

10920 199th Avenue Ct E, Bonney Lake, WA 98391

Coaches will be required to register by email to coaches@leapllc.com 1 to 3 athletes gets 1 coach

credential, 4 to 8 gets 2, 8 to 12 gets 3, 12 to 19 gets 4, and 20 or more gets 5 coaches credentials. The HEAD coach will need to include a list of competitors and additional coaches names.

 

We are using the IBJJF Gi weights for the Adult & Master Gi competitors. Gi competitors will be weighing in WEARING THEIR GI AND BELT.

We are using the IBJJF No-Gi weights for the Adult & Master No-Gi competitors. No-Gi competitors will be weighing in DRESSED IN THE CLOTHES THEY ARE GOING TO COMPETE IN.

 

Competitors CHOOSING TO COMPETE IN BOTH Gi and No-Gi WILL WEIGH IN TWICE.  Competitors will weigh once for their gi division and once for their no-gi division. They will sign up for 2 different weight classes and must weigh in not above their registered division for each or be

disqualified. Weigh ins will be as your division is called. There are no night before or early weigh ins.

 

ADULTS Staggered Weigh – In Times

We will have a schedule posted on Thursday before the event so you will know ahead of time the

estimated time your belt/skill will start to be called. You are welcome to come early and watch, but you can’t weigh in until your division is called to the mat. This will hopefully prevent a long wait at the scales and keep people from having to check in hours before their matches.

Master Division

If you are 30 or over, when registering you will have the option of selecting the Master division. If there are 3 other athletes registering for the same Master division we will build the bracket. If there are not 3 other athletes that register for that Master division you will have checked a box at registration that will let us know to either give you a full refund or roll you into the Adult bracket.

 

REGISTRATION FOR THIS EVENT ENDS WEDNESDAY, MARCH 14th 11:59PM

We will continue to have NO onsite registration the day of the event.  Please have your team plan ahead and register online. All brackets will be finalized and posted when you get there Saturday morning. Your competitors will be able to check the brackets upon arrival. The brackets will not be able to be changed, so make sure your competitors make the weight they sign up for or they will be disqualified.

 

Again we will be adding the option for Adults and Masters to fight up a weight class if there is no match available at their registered weight class. Please discuss with your team if you would like them to take advantage of that option. (This DOES NOT include competitors that weigh in above their registered division.) It allows competitors an option, other than a refund, if there is no one to match them up with for the weight class they registered for when we cast the brackets.

Please note: in most cases when brackets are combined there is ONE athlete from a weigh class above or below added to that bracket.

** Youth/Junior brackets will be finalized and posted in the Youth/Junior competition area. Gi weight is WITHOUT the gi TOP. For no gi weight is dressed to compete.

PLEASE NOTE: For this event there will be NO allowance in youth weights. Your youth competitors must weigh the weight they sign up for.  We will be making up brackets based on the weight that the competitors sign up with. If a competitor weighs more than the weight they registered for and is the heaviest competitor on the bracket THEY WILL BE DISQUALIFIED, AND NO REFUND WILL BE GIVEN. CHANGES ARE ACCEPTED  UNTIL 11:59pm WEDNESDAY, MARCH 14th.
