<br />
Supporting leukemia research, the 2010 George Pendergrass Gi Classic grappling tournament will take place on Saturday, September 25, 2010 at the MVP Sports Center. Registration is now open!<br />
<br />
We will be offering gi divisions for men, women, 30+ men, and juveniles.<br />
<br />
This is a single elimination Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (gi) tournament.  The first 25 pre-registered/paid competitors will receive an event t-shirt!<br />
<br />
Saturday weigh ins will be held from 8:30 AM to 10 AM for anyone competing in adult divisions.  Juveniles must weigh in by 9:30 AM.  Competitors can also weigh in Friday night from 6-8 PM at the Pendergrass Academy.<br />
<br />
Juvenile divisions will use the Madison Bracketing System. There will no longer be preset weight classes for juveniles.  Using the Madison system means children and teens will be less likely to cut weight since they won’t know the weight classes in advance.<br />

<br />
On Saturday, May 8, 2010, the world’s largest grappling tournament circuit returns to Charlotte for its annual NAGA North Carolina Grappling Championship.  This tournament is open to all grappling styles, you do not need to be on a team or be a member of any organization to compete. This event is nationally RANKED!<br />
<br />
PRE-REGISTER ONLINE HERE or download the registration form, print it out and mail it in to the address on the form along with your check.<br />
<br />
SAMURAI SWORDS TO CHILDREN &amp; TEEN WINNERS<br />
NAGA will be awarding custom engraved SAMURAI SWORDS to all non-expert Kids &amp; Teens 1st place winners!  Octagon medals will be awarded to all non-expert Adult divisions winners.   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.<br />

6 SPECTACULAR CHAMPIONSHIP CUP TEAM AWARDS<br />
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. &amp; under) will receive a huge Championship Cup for their team.<br />
<br />
NEW ADULT ABSOLUTE NO-GI DIVISIONS<br />
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.<br />
<br />
CHAMPIONSHIP BELT<br />
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 &amp; Intermediate Absolute Divisions will take home octagon medals.<br />
<br />
FREE OPEN MAT WITH NAGA REFEREES<br />
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.<br />
<br />
WEIGH-IN ON FRIDAY OR SATURDAY<br />
NAGA will be offering all competitors the option of registering and weighing-in the night BEFORE the tournament from 5 PM to 8 PM. The weigh-in will take place at the venue. If you cannot make it on Friday, all competitors can register/weigh-in all day on Saturday beginning at 8 AM. You can weigh-in up till your divisions begins.
