Oregon Open Jiu Jitsu Championship
Salem, OR, United States
Description
Step onto the mats at Oregon's Biggest Jiu Jitsu Tournament - the 20th Annual Oregon Open! For 20 years, Sub League has been bringing the region's best together. Now it's your chance to test yourself, showcase your skills, and be part of history.
The Oregon Open Jiu Jitsu Championship is a traditional, pointed Jiu Jitsu tournament where matches are decided by highest score, submission, or referee stoppage. Oregon Open has historically been a single elimination tournament but with experience matches for competitors who lose their first bout. To accomplish this most efficiently within the Smoothcomp platform, we have adjusted our bracketing to automatically incorporate a second match for athletes who lose their first match. Divisions include Gi and No-gi; Adult, Master 1 (30+), Master 2 (40+), and Youth (ages 5 up)… divided by belt/skill, weight, and age.

What to expect at the event
TRACK YOUR BRACKET'S DYNAMIC START TIME
Please remember the schedule is LIVE the day of the event. It is not unusual for times to change rapidly throughout the day. Brackets starting later in the day may shift up to 90 minutes earlier than originally scheduled. It is the competitor’s responsibility to monitor any changes in the schedule to start times and mat numbers for their bracket. Sub League is NOT responsible for any athlete who misses their weigh-in or start time of their bracket. No refunds will be given to competitors who miss their weigh-in or start time.
BE READY ON TIME
Competitors should be in the building and dressed to compete 1-hour before their BRACKET’s start time (not their individual match time). The Brackets and Schedule will be available by the end of the day on Thursday before the event (for Saturday's matches). In the case of a 2-day event, Sunday's Brackets and Schedule will be posted by the end of the day on Friday before the event.
CHECK-IN
Every competitor will check-in at the front desk when they arrive. Competitors who complete their registration by the free shirt cut-off date are eligible to receive a free T-shirt (available at the merchandise booth). Competitors should stay up-to-date with the progress of their bracket start time and mat number on their own phone and/or on the screen provided in the bullpen.
Competitors wanting to check their weight before the official weigh-in should visit the bullpen to use the test scale. Warm up mats will be available.
WEIGH-INS
Competitors will be weighed in when their bracket is called to the bullpen area. This may occur up to 1-hour before your BRACKET’s scheduled start time. When your bracket is called, find your Bullpen Leader in the bullpen area to get officially weighed in. All competitors will weigh-in wearing their full competition attire. There is ZERO (0.00) weight allowance. Competitors weighing more than the maximum weight listed for their division will be disqualified and will not be allowed to compete. Athletes competing in both Gi and No-gi will weigh-in separately for both.
AWARDS
After your bracket is finished, please wait for the Awards Runner to take you from the mat to the awards booth to receive your medal. Adult/Masters receive medals for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. Youth/Teens receive medals for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place plus participation medals for 4th place and above.
