Adult competitors who place 1st and win gold medals will have the opportunity to obtain samurai swords at the NAGA Merchandise Booth for a nominal fee.
6 SPECTACULAR CHAMPIONSHIP CUP TEAM AWARDS
All children/teens that do not place (1st through 3rd) will receive a medal just for having the courage to compete! All 6 of our top teams (Adult Gi, No-Gi, and Children 17 yrs. & under) will receive a huge Championship Cup for their team.
NEW ADULT ABSOLUTE NO-GI DIVISIONS
Many NAGA No-gi competitors have asked us to allow them to compete in multiple skill levels in order to get more opportunities to roll the day of the competition. In order to facilitate their request we have added Novice, Beginner and Intermediate Absolute No-Gi Divisions. These No-Gi Divisions will begin once all the regular No-Gi divisions have ended so no-gi grapplers will not miss their second chance to compete. 1st through 3rd place winners take home octagon medals.
CHAMPIONSHIP BELT
The winner of our Advanced Absolute No-Gi Division will take home a NAGA Championship Belt; this is an open weight class division for advanced competitors only. The winners of the Novice, Beginner & Intermediate Absolute Divisions will take home octagon medals.
FREE OPEN MAT WITH NAGA REFEREES
Here is your chance to roll with NAGA Referees and NAGA Staff members. Our staff will be happy to share techniques with you, help you get a good sweat in or to just have some fun. Our referees are experienced competitors, come learn from them and help improve your game. Open Mat will take place on Friday night from 6:30 to 7:30 PM at the venue.
