Weigh ins

You only weigh in one time and that is for your gi event. If you are only competing in no gi you will weigh-in in your no gi attire. You will be registered into the same weight classes for both.

Weigh-ins are held the same day of the event.  Weigh ins for gi are done with the full gi and belt on. Kids are allowed a 2 pound allowance. Adults, Juveniles, and Masters must make weight or will be disqualified.

We will be using IBJJF weight classes for Juvenile and adult divisions

Kids:

In an effort to create more matches for kids we will be doing custom weight classes which you can view when you go to sign up. Most divisions are 10 lbs apart except for the young kids (ages 4 & 5) and **up to 15 lbs for the older larger children**. 

**PARENTS PLEASE NOTE - kids will receive a 2 pound allowance. This means that if they are overweight by a maximum of 2 pounds, they will be permitted to compete. If they exceed the allowance (2.1+ lbs) they will be disqualified and not compete. It is the responsibility of the competitor and/or parent to update your weight class BEFORE the final day for changes has passed (Thurs , may 18 th)**  

**ADULT/MASTERS PLEASE NOTE: you will have a 1 lb allowance. Meaning you can be a maximum of 1lb overweight for your division and still compete. If you exceed the allowance by 0.1 lbs or more, you will be disqualified and not compete**

Weigh-ins are held the same day of the event. Weigh ins are done with the full nogi attire
