Royal Marines BJJ Corps Champs 2024

Royal Marines Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Championships – Wed 22 May 24 General - The Royal Marines Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Championships will be held at the Commando Training Centre Royal Marines, Lympstone, Devon, EX8 5AR. This year’s competition has been programmed with consideration of the wider Royal Marines Sport Association (RMSA) programme and wider Brigade (Bde) commitments. Although the dates will not suit all establishments, it is hoped that every unit will be capable of fielding a team/individual to build on the competition’s success seen over recent years. The RMBJJ competition is very much about grassroots Jiu Jitsu and it supports identifying and developing the new and developing Marines for future RM and RN representation. The competition continues to provide an opportunity for individuals and Unit teams to test themselves in a highly competitive sporting environment. Eligibility - This event is open to all serving Royal Marines and Royal Marines Veterans (inclusive of Branch or Military Arm transfer). All competitors must be over 18 years of age on the competition day. MoD Civil Servants are not permitted to participate in this event. This event will be conducted in accordance with the eligibility rules of the International Brazilian Ju-Jitsu Federation (IBJJF). Cost - The cost of the competition will be a donation to the Royal Marines Charity on the day (£10 is recommended) who have supported the development of Jiu Jitsu in the Royal Marines. Registration - Although the registration process details IBJJF weight categories, it is likely that catch weights will be created to ensure the brackets can be filled and competitors have the opportunity of health competition. You will not be able to register on the day of the event on the day itself.
