REGISTRATIONS (editing, payment and cancellation)
Registration corrections can be made by accessing your Smoothcomp account, such as belt correction, weight, and adding or changing your academy: click here to view the tutorial.
For changes in age category, send an email to support@adcclatinamerica.com with your full name and the requested correction.
- Category rules: athletes may not register below their belt rank, age, or weight. ADCC uses the athlete’s data as of the event date.
- Refunds: registrations are non-refundable. Athletes unable to participate may request credit for future events up to 5 days before the event.
- Credits: all credit requests and usage must be made exclusively through official support channels (WhatsApp or email). Do not cancel directly on Smoothcomp, as requests outside official channels will not be processed.
- If an athlete who is alone in their division does not request a change within the deadline set in the schedule, they will be reallocated during bracket adjustments, with no possibility of late requests. Athletes who do not compete in any match will not receive ranking points.
- All coaches must register for the event through the official link.

🚨Sandbagging Policy:
In order to ensure competitive fairness and compliance with ADCC guidelines, the following rules are established:
I. Remaining in a Higher Category An athlete who wins 03 (three) gold medals in a higher skill category will be permanently prohibited from returning to a lower category, regardless of belt rank, training time, or team declaration. For youth athletes, this rule applies within the same age division.
II. Mandatory Progression An athlete who wins 05 (five) gold medals in the same skill category must be mandatorily promoted to the immediately higher category, regardless of formal belt rank.
III. It is not allowed to register in a category lower than the one corresponding to the athlete’s belt rank, weight, or age as considered on the DAY OF THE EVENT. Athletes in the Master category are allowed to compete in the Adult category.
Doing any of these actions may result in a permanent ban from all ADCC events.
