Medals will be awarded for First, Second and Third in all divisions.
Kids Divisions
There will be two separate round robin competitions, which will be further split into weight classes, for kids to compete in. Girls and boys will compete together until the age of 12 when boys and girls will be seperated.
1. Submissions (Gi and No-Gi): Round Robin, 3 minute matches, Graplling Industries Rules and weights, Mixed Belts (coloured belts will be seeded so they are not all in the same bracket).
2. No Submissions (Gi only), Pin to Win: Round Robin, 3 minute matches, Grappling Industries Rules (other than subs) and weights, Mixed Belts (coloured belts will be seeded so they are not all in the same bracket). Were a competitor to hold a combination of the mount, back-mount or back-control positions for a period of 20 seconds they would be awarded the match. If the other competitor were to escape the position, the timer would be reset to zero and the match would continue.
