High Tide Submission Series is BACK with our Gi Tournament, at the Holiday Inn St.Johns Conference Centre! Join us November 15th for another amazing tournament filled with the best vibes on the island!🥋🌊
We have big plans in store as our tournament continues to grow! The extra space will allow us to have more activities for kids, more mat space to make for a shorter day, and the same cash and prizes you have come to love (including $500 cash prize for the winners of our men’s and women’s absolute divisions!)
There will be divisions for kids, teens, adults and an absolute division each for men & women!
Kids divisions will start in the morning and run into the afternoon, adult divisions will run into the afternoon, finishing off with the absolutes.
This will be a Submission Only tournament featuring ten minute rounds for adult & highschool divisions (ages 16+), six minute rounds for ages 12-15, and four minute rounds for kids (11 years & under). If there is no submission achieved within the time limit, the match will go to referee’s decision. For the absolute divisions with our big cash prizes on the line, the matches must end in submission to declare a winner - there will be no time limit, as the winner will not be declared by referee decision.
This year’s competitors will receive a free registration kit just for competing!
