September 25, 2010 – MVP Sportsplex – Wake Forest, NC

The 2010 George Pendergrass No Gi Classic grappling tournament supporting leukemia research will take place on Saturday, September 25, 2010 at the MVP Sports Center. Registration is now open!

We will be offering no gi divisions for men, women, 30+ men, and juveniles.

This is a single elimination submission grappling (no gi) tournament.  The first 25 pre-registered/paid competitors will receive an event t-shirt!

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 (location TBD).

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.

Tentative Event Schedule
Note – the schedule is tentative. We will adhere as closely to the schedule as possible, but some divisions may take longer than anticipated.  As the event approaches, this schedule may be modified

Weigh ins begin – 8:30 AM
Weigh ins end for Juvenile divisions: 9:30 AM SHARP
Weigh ins end for adult divisions:  10:00 AM SHARP
Rules meeting 10:45 AM
11:00:  Juvenile Divisions (single elimination)
11:00:  Men’s Advanced Divisions
11:30:   Women’s Divisions (all skill levels)
11:30:   30+ Divisions (all skill levels)

Not before 12:00: Men’s Intermediate Divisions
Not before 1:00: Men’s Beginner Divisions
Not before 1:30: Men’s Novice Divisions

The absolute divisions will begin when the weight classes for that belt have finished.  For example, when all of the men’s advanced divisions have finished, we will begin the men’s advanced absolute.  The last division of the day will be the men’s novice absolute.
