Two years in and going strong. Such an effort put in from day one. No hassle from this guy, trains consistently, shows up with intent and has really grown into what is now his blue belt.

Huge shoutout to Finlay Heap, Rhys McGimpsey, and Lewis Kelsey for stepping up at Solid Ground today

Four guillotine finishes and a near lights-out triangle — against more experienced competitors — earned them two golds and a silver.

Finlay then travelled up to Rural Retreat to compete at a second event, and came close to an armbar finish of his own. Hats off to his opponent, who ultimately won it via triangle.

All three have been training for less than a year. The future is very bright for this trio.

Wins and losses both taught us something today — credit to Finlay for pushing that pace, and to his opponent for finishing strong.

One very proud coach and club today.

88 kids. 142 matches. One proud team. 🥋

So much growth on display today at our Kids & Teens Interclub — every roll, every scramble, every “I don’t want to stop” moment. This is what it’s all about. Pics by Michael Bruce

Huge thanks to our referees and staff for keeping everything running smoothly, and to the parents, coaches, and visiting clubs for all the support. Couldn’t do it without you all. Team Ryano Limavady Team Evolve Kinetic Brazilian Jiu Jitsu North Coast Grappling Peter McClay
