SIO Fall Junior Championship 2024

The SIO Fall Junior Championship 2024 is coming to Vancouver Island on Saturday, September 21st, 2024!

This Brazilian Jiu-jitsu tournament is open to competitors ages 4-17, features both Gi and No-Gi divisions, and is open to Jiu-jitsu clubs of all affiliations. Competitors who register in both Gi and NoGi Divisions will receive the second division at an additionally discounted price. 

This will be a great opportunity to get some competition experience in a friendly venue. We will use the IBJJF points system and the round-robin format (rather than elimination-based) for all divisions, and the number of matches will depend on the number of competitors in your division*.

All divisions will be formed based on a combination of age, weight, and skill. We will make every effort to create even and competitive brackets; however, we reserve the right to merge divisions in order to give everyone the best experience. Our ‘Sub-Hunter’ ruleset will favour submission wins over points wins in the rankings for medals (except for Mighty Mite divisions, which are not allowed submissions).

Deadline for Early Bird registration is Saturday, July 13th. Regular registration will be open until Friday, August 30th. Late registration will close Sunday, September 15th at midnight. 

SCHEDULE:

Brackets and schedule will be posted mid-week prior to the event on Smoothcom and notifications will be sent to competitors. Note that we will start with Mighty Mite (ages 4-6) and Pee Wee (ages 7-9) divisions first, followed by Junior (ages 10-12), Teen (ages 13-15), and Juvenile (ages 16-17). The tournament is expected to run from approximately 9am to 4pm, and competitors are required to be checked in no later than 30 minutes before their division is expected to begin. 

MOVEMENT & CANCELLATION POLICY:

No division movement requests will be processed by via email while Registration is open.

Changes to or cancellation of any competitor’s registration must be initiated by the competitor’s Parent/Guardian in Smoothcomp. Login to your profile and select "My Account". Then, click "Edit" for this event. To cancel an athlete's registration, click "Cancel".
