NEW DIVISION: TAKEDOWN ONLY TOURNAMENT

In addition to the Greco-Roman and Freestyle wrestling divisions we will be running a new takedown only tournament.  Designed for MMA, BJJ, judo and wrestling to compete in an even rule set.

The Takedown Tournament eliminates ground wrestling and allows upper and lower body holds

This event is only for ages 16+ and above.

Objective: Athletes compete in a round robin format.  The first person to 3 points wins the match.  Who ever wins the most matches will be the overall winner of the weight division and crowned KING OF THE MAT👑

Scoring points: 

Taking your opponent from standing to the ground is 1 point (A takedown is considered anything other than the sole of the hands or feet touching the ground.)

Taking your opponent from feet to back is 3 points and ends the match

Pushing your opponent out of the circle is 1 point

The event will run under UWW International Wrestling Rules www.uww.org/sites/default/files/2019-12/wrestling_rules.pdf
