THE 2022 HOUSTON GRAPPLING GAMES KIDS & TEENS CHAMPIONSHIP

This event will be for BJJ competitors 4 through 17 years old.

Please visit www.grapplinggames.org/gg111 for the list preliminary divisions (posted Thursday 12/8 by 8pm).

SATURDAY WEIGH-IN SCHEDULE:​

Kids and teens under 90-lbs may weigh in as early as 8:00am, when our doors open.

Kids and teens over 90-lbs may begin weighing in at any time after 11:00am, but they MUST be weighed in 15 minutes before their scheduled start time, or they risk being disqualified.

If you are competing in multiple divisions (gi and no-gi), you only need to weigh in ONE time for the whole day.

We recommend arriving one hour before your division is expected to start to allow time to find parking, weigh in, warm up, etc.

Please visit www.grapplinggames.org/gg111 for the full weigh in schedule.

HOW TO WEIGH-IN:

​To discourage unhealthy and potentially dangerous weight-cuts and diets, we do not hold weigh-ins on the night before our tournaments. We recommend our athletes compete in a weight division that falls under their normal everyday weight.

Weigh-ins are without the gi at the venue at assigned times before your division.

There is a 1-pound allowance to account for undergarments and scale difference.

If you miss your scheduled weigh-in time, you will be considered absent, your name will be removed from the brackets, and the bracket will be re-drawn.

If you do not make weight or do not weigh-in at least 15 minutes before your division begins, YOU WILL BE DISQUALIFIED FROM YOUR WEIGHT DIVISIONS. If you signed up for Absolute divisions, you may still compete in those.

Please make sure you are at the weight you registered for, as there will be no refunds or transfers given due to disqualification or missing weight for any reason.

If you know you need to change your weight division after you have registered, please contact us before 8PM on the Friday before the tournament to change divisions.
