Dear Grapplers & BJJ Fighters, 

We hereby would like to invite you for Amsterdam Open BJJ & Grappling on Sunday 14 October 2018.

For Grappling there will be 2 classes:

Beginner: Up to 2 years of training
Advanced: More than 2 years of training

The weight classes are:

Ladies: -58kg and +58kg
Gentleman: -67kg, -73kg, -79kg, -85kg, -91kg en +91kg

During the Grappling matches choke-holds are allowed. (And yes, also knee reaping) IBJJF point system is applicable but without advantages.

For BJJ you have the following classes:

White and blue belts are: -64,-70,-76,-82.3,-88.3,-94.3,+94.3
Purple belts: -80kg & +80kg
Women: -60kg & +60kg, Purple Open

Weigh-ins are with the gi/kimono on, so the weight of your gi is included.

You must be on weight for each category. Being overweight will result in a DQ and you will not be able to move to a higher weight category.

We will be working with a Rebound-System which means that every class has a minimum of 2 fights, guaranteed. When you lose a fight you will go to the rebound bracket for the 3rd place. 
IBJJF point system will be applicable during the tournament. 

Registration is only possible through the http://bjjholland.com/amsterdam-open-bjj/ www.bjjholland.com and closes Saturday 6 October OR earlier when we reached our maximum capacity! Please DON'T wait till the last minute to register, FULL = FULL!

NOTE: Registration is only complete when payment has been done and your name is on the website. Check one day after registration if your name is on the list. If it's not, please send us an email asap with proof of payment. For Dutch fighters payment is via Ideal and outside The Netherlands via PayPal. 

Also, DOUBLE CHECK if you are registering for Grappling or BJJ. The last time people weren't paying attention and caused us a lot of last minute work, while the brackets were already published, because they made a mistake and wanted to fight in Grappling instead of BJJ or visa versa.

You can register for BJJ and Grappling but it's Not possible to register for two weights classes within the same discipline.
