OUR BEST VENUE EVER
We have acquired one of the best venues in the South for a grappling competition, the Alpharetta High School Field House.  The venue is awesome, with 3 full sets of wrestling mats for competition and additional mats for warming up.  This facility has huge bathrooms and changing areas, and a 1,000 car parking lot.  The gym is located just off Route 400 and is easy to get to. 

WEIGH-IN on Friday or Saturday
NAGA will be offering all competitors the option of registering and weighing in the night BEFORE the tournament!  If you cannot make it on Friday, you can weigh-in anytime on Saturday prior to your division starting.   

17 CHAMPIONSHIP BELTS AWARDED
Check the registration form to see which advanced divisions take home a magnificent championship belt.

SAMURAI SWORDS to all 1^st PLACE
The NAGA will be handing out custom engraved SNAKESKIN SAMURAI Swords to ALL 1^st place winners who do not win a belt.  Medals will be awarded to all 2^nd & 3^rd place winners.    

RANKED EVENT                                                                                           
All NAGA events are part of the nationwide ranking system entitled RANKED. Our goal is to determine who the best grapplers in the country are for various age, gender and skill levels.  The NAGA US Nationals will be nationally Ranked.  Do not miss your opportunity to gain points towards a true “National Title”.   Go to www.nationallyranked.com for current rankings.

SANDBAGGERS BEWARE
NAGA works diligently to prevent "sandbagging", or the practice of fighting down skill levels, to ensure one takes home an award.  At the NAGA US Nationals, front door personnel will use RANKED data to determine whether or not individuals who have fought in past events belong in a higher skill level (i.e. placed 1st at a prior NAGA event for that skill level).  We feel very confident that sandbaggers will be forced to fight in their appropriate divisions.
