SUMMARY:South Florida Grappling & BJJ Championship - Miami\, FL
DESCRIPTION:Tournament Information\n									Registration\n									Prizes\n									Schedule\n									Divisions\n									Travel\n							\n			\n									Tournament Information\n					LOCATION:Austin Sports Center1420 Toro Grande BlvdCedar Park\, TX 78613 \nCOVID RELATED PROTOCOLThe NAGA Austin tournament will use four sessions in order to stay under the venue’s capacity limit. The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing. The venue has a zero tolerance policy concerning wearing masks and will eject anyone not wearing one. \nSession 1: Children (13 & under) Novice & Beginner – Report time 8:00 AM t- 9:30 AM. \nSession 2: Children (13 & under) Intermediate\, Advanced\, Expert. All Teens (14-17 years). Report time: 11:45 AM. \nSession 3: All Women. Men (18 & over) Intermediate\, Expert\, Blue\, Purple\, Brown\, Black belt.

The spectator must accompany the competitor when entering the venue. \nAnyone entering the Austin venue must have a waiver on file with the Austin Sports Center. You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST. We will provide you the code. If you reach our voicemail please leave your name\, number\, the event you are registering for\, and the number of family members competing. We will leave you a message with the code if we reach your voicemail.In Smoothcomp\, you need to register and pay for each competitor individually. Please enter the coupon code into only one registration. The code will cover the family discount. \nCOME JOIN OUR TEAMEach year NAGA runs over 65 events a year across the world. We are always looking for new staff members to join the NAGA team. If you are interested in becoming a referee\, ring coordinator\, security\, weigh-in\, awards\, or photographer email us at info@nagafighter.com.

If this is the first time you are using Smoothcomp you will need to create an account with them before you can register for an event. Brackets are posted on Friday night. It is possible that some competitors are not placed into a bracket.

SUMMARY:North Carolina Grappling & BJJ Championship - Hickory\, NC
DESCRIPTION:Tournament Information\n									Registration\n									Prizes\n									Schedule\n									Divisions\n									Travel\n							\n			\n									Tournament Information\n					LOCATION:Austin Sports Center1420 Toro Grande BlvdCedar Park\, TX 78613 \nCOVID RELATED PROTOCOLThe NAGA Austin tournament will use four sessions in order to stay under the venue’s capacity limit. The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing. The venue has a zero tolerance policy concerning wearing masks and will eject anyone not wearing one. \nSession 1: Children (13 & under) Novice & Beginner – Report time 8:00 AM t- 9:30 AM. \nSession 2: Children (13 & under) Intermediate\, Advanced\, Expert. All Teens (14-17 years). Report time: 11:45 AM. \nSession 3: All Women. Men (18 & over) Intermediate\, Expert\, Blue\, Purple\, Brown\, Black belt. Report time: 2:30 PM \nSession 4: Men (18 & over) Novice\, Beginner\, White belt. Report time: 5:45 PM \nThe venue for Austin is still at a one spectator per competitor limit. The spectator must accompany the competitor when entering the venue. \nAnyone entering the Austin venue must have a waiver on file with the Austin Sports Center. You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST. We will provide you the code. If you reach our voicemail please leave your name\, number\, the event you are registering for\, and the number of family members competing. We will leave you a message with the code if we reach your voicemail.In Smoothcomp\, you need to register and pay for each competitor individually. Please enter the coupon code into only one registration. The code will cover the family discount. \nCOME JOIN OUR TEAMEach year NAGA runs over 65 events a year across the world. We are always looking for new staff members to join the NAGA team.

SUMMARY:Boston Grappling & BJJ Championship - Hanover\, MA
DESCRIPTION:Tournament Information\n									Registration\n									Prizes\n									Schedule\n									Divisions\n									Travel\n							\n			\n									Tournament Information\n					LOCATION:Austin Sports Center1420 Toro Grande BlvdCedar Park\, TX 78613 \nCOVID RELATED PROTOCOLThe NAGA Austin tournament will use four sessions in order to stay under the venue’s capacity limit. The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing. The venue has a zero tolerance policy concerning wearing masks and will eject anyone not wearing one. \nSession 1: Children (13 & under) Novice & Beginner – Report time 8:00 AM t- 9:30 AM. \nSession 2: Children (13 & under) Intermediate\, Advanced\, Expert. All Teens (14-17 years). Report time: 11:45 AM. \nSession 3: All Women. Men (18 & over) Intermediate\, Expert\, Blue\, Purple\, Brown\, Black belt. Report time: 2:30 PM \nSession 4: Men (18 & over) Novice\, Beginner\, White belt. Report time: 5:45 PM \nThe venue for Austin is still at a one spectator per competitor limit. The spectator must accompany the competitor when entering the venue. \nAnyone entering the Austin venue must have a waiver on file with the Austin Sports Center. You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST. We will provide you the code. If you reach our voicemail please leave your name\, number\, the event you are registering for\, and the number of family members competing. We will leave you a message with the code if we reach your voicemail.In Smoothcomp\, you need to register and pay for each competitor individually. Please enter the coupon code into only one registration. The code will cover the family discount. \nCOME JOIN OUR TEAMEach year NAGA runs over 65 events a year across the world. We are always looking for new staff members to join the NAGA team.

If this is the first time you are using Smoothcomp you will need to create an account with them before you can register for an event. Brackets are posted on Friday night. It is possible that some competitors are not placed into a bracket.

The session breakdown follows.

Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete.

DESCRIPTION:Tournament Information\n									Registration\n									Prizes\n									Schedule\n									Divisions\n									Travel\n							\n			\n									Tournament Information\n					LOCATION:Austin Sports Center1420 Toro Grande BlvdCedar Park\, TX 78613 \nCOVID RELATED PROTOCOLThe NAGA Austin tournament will use four sessions in order to stay under the venue’s capacity limit. The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing. The venue has a zero tolerance policy concerning wearing masks and will eject anyone not wearing one. \nSession 1: Children (13 & under) Novice & Beginner – Report time 8:00 AM t- 9:30 AM. \nSession 2: Children (13 & under) Intermediate\, Advanced\, Expert. All Teens (14-17 years). Report time: 11:45 AM. \nSession 3: All Women. Men (18 & over) Intermediate\, Expert\, Blue\, Purple\, Brown\, Black belt. Report time: 2:30 PM \nSession 4: Men (18 & over) Novice\, Beginner\, White belt. Report time: 5:45 PM \nThe venue for Austin is still at a one spectator per competitor limit. The spectator must accompany the competitor when entering the venue. \nAnyone entering the Austin venue must have a waiver on file with the Austin Sports Center. You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST. We will provide you the code. If you reach our voicemail please leave your name\, number\, the event you are registering for\, and the number of family members competing. We will leave you a message with the code if we reach your voicemail.In Smoothcomp\, you need to register and pay for each competitor individually. Please enter the coupon code into only one registration. The code will cover the family discount. \nCOME JOIN OUR TEAMEach year NAGA runs over 65 events a year across the world.

SUMMARY:Baltimore Grappling & BJJ Championship - Baltimore\, MD
DESCRIPTION:Tournament Information\n									Registration\n									Prizes\n									Schedule\n									Divisions\n									Travel\n							\n			\n									Tournament Information\n					LOCATION:Austin Sports Center1420 Toro Grande BlvdCedar Park\, TX 78613 \nCOVID RELATED PROTOCOLThe NAGA Austin tournament will use four sessions in order to stay under the venue’s capacity limit. The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing. The venue has a zero tolerance policy concerning wearing masks and will eject anyone not wearing one. \nSession 1: Children (13 & under) Novice & Beginner – Report time 8:00 AM t- 9:30 AM. \nSession 2: Children (13 & under) Intermediate\, Advanced\, Expert. All Teens (14-17 years). Report time: 11:45 AM. \nSession 3: All Women. Men (18 & over) Intermediate\, Expert\, Blue\, Purple\, Brown\, Black belt. Report time: 2:30 PM \nSession 4: Men (18 & over) Novice\, Beginner\, White belt. Report time: 5:45 PM \nThe venue for Austin is still at a one spectator per competitor limit. The spectator must accompany the competitor when entering the venue. \nAnyone entering the Austin venue must have a waiver on file with the Austin Sports Center. You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST. We will provide you the code. If you reach our voicemail please leave your name\, number\, the event you are registering for\, and the number of family members competing. We will leave you a message with the code if we reach your voicemail.In Smoothcomp\, you need to register and pay for each competitor individually. Please enter the coupon code into only one registration. The code will cover the family discount. \nCOME JOIN OUR TEAMEach year NAGA runs over 65 events a year across the world. We are always looking for new staff members to join the NAGA team.

If this is the first time you are using Smoothcomp you will need to create an account with them before you can register for an event. Brackets are posted on Friday night. It is possible that some competitors are not placed into a bracket.

The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing.

You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST.

DESCRIPTION:Tournament Information\n									Registration\n									Prizes\n									Schedule\n									Divisions\n									Travel\n							\n			\n									Tournament Information\n					LOCATION:Austin Sports Center1420 Toro Grande BlvdCedar Park\, TX 78613 \nCOVID RELATED PROTOCOLThe NAGA Austin tournament will use four sessions in order to stay under the venue’s capacity limit. The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing. The venue has a zero tolerance policy concerning wearing masks and will eject anyone not wearing one. \nSession 1: Children (13 & under) Novice & Beginner – Report time 8:00 AM t- 9:30 AM. \nSession 2: Children (13 & under) Intermediate\, Advanced\, Expert. All Teens (14-17 years). Report time: 11:45 AM. \nSession 3: All Women. Men (18 & over) Intermediate\, Expert\, Blue\, Purple\, Brown\, Black belt. Report time: 2:30 PM \nSession 4: Men (18 & over) Novice\, Beginner\, White belt. Report time: 5:45 PM \nThe venue for Austin is still at a one spectator per competitor limit. The spectator must accompany the competitor when entering the venue. \nAnyone entering the Austin venue must have a waiver on file with the Austin Sports Center. You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST.

We will leave you a message with the code if we reach your voicemail.In Smoothcomp\, you need to register and pay for each competitor individually.

SUMMARY:Houston Grappling & BJJ Championship - Spring\, TX
DESCRIPTION:Tournament Information\n									Registration\n									Prizes\n									Schedule\n									Divisions\n									Travel\n							\n			\n									Tournament Information\n					LOCATION:Austin Sports Center1420 Toro Grande BlvdCedar Park\, TX 78613 \nCOVID RELATED PROTOCOLThe NAGA Austin tournament will use four sessions in order to stay under the venue’s capacity limit. The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing. The venue has a zero tolerance policy concerning wearing masks and will eject anyone not wearing one. \nSession 1: Children (13 & under) Novice & Beginner – Report time 8:00 AM t- 9:30 AM. \nSession 2: Children (13 & under) Intermediate\, Advanced\, Expert. All Teens (14-17 years). Report time: 11:45 AM. \nSession 3: All Women. Men (18 & over) Intermediate\, Expert\, Blue\, Purple\, Brown\, Black belt. Report time: 2:30 PM \nSession 4: Men (18 & over) Novice\, Beginner\, White belt. Report time: 5:45 PM \nThe venue for Austin is still at a one spectator per competitor limit. The spectator must accompany the competitor when entering the venue. \nAnyone entering the Austin venue must have a waiver on file with the Austin Sports Center. You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST. We will provide you the code. If you reach our voicemail please leave your name\, number\, the event you are registering for\, and the number of family members competing. We will leave you a message with the code if we reach your voicemail.In Smoothcomp\, you need to register and pay for each competitor individually. Please enter the coupon code into only one registration. The code will cover the family discount. \nCOME JOIN OUR TEAMEach year NAGA runs over 65 events a year across the world. We are always looking for new staff members to join the NAGA team.

If this is the first time you are using Smoothcomp you will need to create an account with them before you can register for an event. Brackets are posted on Friday night. It is possible that some competitors are not placed into a bracket.

The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing.

You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators.

For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST.

The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing. The venue has a zero tolerance policy concerning wearing masks and will eject anyone not wearing one. \nSession 1: Children (13 & under) Novice & Beginner – Report time 8:00 AM t- 9:30 AM. \nSession 2: Children (13 & under) Intermediate\, Advanced\, Expert. All Teens (14-17 years). Report time: 11:45 AM. \nSession 3: All Women. Men (18 & over) Intermediate\, Expert\, Blue\, Purple\, Brown\, Black belt.

You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST.

We will leave you a message with the code if we reach your voicemail.In Smoothcomp\, you need to register and pay for each competitor individually.

SUMMARY:Pensacola Grappling & BJJ Championship – Ft. Walton Beach\, FL
DESCRIPTION:Tournament Information\n									Registration\n									Prizes\n									Schedule\n									Divisions\n									Travel\n							\n			\n									Tournament Information\n					LOCATION:Austin Sports Center1420 Toro Grande BlvdCedar Park\, TX 78613 \nCOVID RELATED PROTOCOLThe NAGA Austin tournament will use four sessions in order to stay under the venue’s capacity limit. The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing. The venue has a zero tolerance policy concerning wearing masks and will eject anyone not wearing one. \nSession 1: Children (13 & under) Novice & Beginner – Report time 8:00 AM t- 9:30 AM. \nSession 2: Children (13 & under) Intermediate\, Advanced\, Expert. All Teens (14-17 years). Report time: 11:45 AM. \nSession 3: All Women. Men (18 & over) Intermediate\, Expert\, Blue\, Purple\, Brown\, Black belt. Report time: 2:30 PM \nSession 4: Men (18 & over) Novice\, Beginner\, White belt. Report time: 5:45 PM \nThe venue for Austin is still at a one spectator per competitor limit. The spectator must accompany the competitor when entering the venue. \nAnyone entering the Austin venue must have a waiver on file with the Austin Sports Center. You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST. We will provide you the code. If you reach our voicemail please leave your name\, number\, the event you are registering for\, and the number of family members competing. We will leave you a message with the code if we reach your voicemail.In Smoothcomp\, you need to register and pay for each competitor individually. Please enter the coupon code into only one registration. The code will cover the family discount. \nCOME JOIN OUR TEAMEach year NAGA runs over 65 events a year across the world. We are always looking for new staff members to join the NAGA team.

If this is the first time you are using Smoothcomp you will need to create an account with them before you can register for an event. Brackets are posted on Friday night.

The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing. The venue has a zero tolerance policy concerning wearing masks and will eject anyone not wearing one. \nSession 1: Children (13 & under) Novice & Beginner – Report time 8:00 AM t- 9:30 AM. \nSession 2: Children (13 & under) Intermediate\, Advanced\, Expert.

You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST.

DESCRIPTION:Tournament Information\n									Registration\n									Prizes\n									Schedule\n									Divisions\n									Travel\n							\n			\n									Tournament Information\n					LOCATION:Austin Sports Center1420 Toro Grande BlvdCedar Park\, TX 78613 \nCOVID RELATED PROTOCOLThe NAGA Austin tournament will use four sessions in order to stay under the venue’s capacity limit. The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing. The venue has a zero tolerance policy concerning wearing masks and will eject anyone not wearing one. \nSession 1: Children (13 & under) Novice & Beginner – Report time 8:00 AM t- 9:30 AM. \nSession 2: Children (13 & under) Intermediate\, Advanced\, Expert. All Teens (14-17 years). Report time: 11:45 AM. \nSession 3: All Women. Men (18 & over) Intermediate\, Expert\, Blue\, Purple\, Brown\, Black belt.

The spectator must accompany the competitor when entering the venue. \nAnyone entering the Austin venue must have a waiver on file with the Austin Sports Center. You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST.

SUMMARY:Albany Grappling & BJJ Championship - Albany\, NY
DESCRIPTION:Tournament Information\n									Registration\n									Prizes\n									Schedule\n									Divisions\n									Travel\n							\n			\n									Tournament Information\n					LOCATION:Austin Sports Center1420 Toro Grande BlvdCedar Park\, TX 78613 \nCOVID RELATED PROTOCOLThe NAGA Austin tournament will use four sessions in order to stay under the venue’s capacity limit. The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing. The venue has a zero tolerance policy concerning wearing masks and will eject anyone not wearing one. \nSession 1: Children (13 & under) Novice & Beginner – Report time 8:00 AM t- 9:30 AM. \nSession 2: Children (13 & under) Intermediate\, Advanced\, Expert. All Teens (14-17 years). Report time: 11:45 AM. \nSession 3: All Women. Men (18 & over) Intermediate\, Expert\, Blue\, Purple\, Brown\, Black belt. Report time: 2:30 PM \nSession 4: Men (18 & over) Novice\, Beginner\, White belt. Report time: 5:45 PM \nThe venue for Austin is still at a one spectator per competitor limit. The spectator must accompany the competitor when entering the venue. \nAnyone entering the Austin venue must have a waiver on file with the Austin Sports Center. You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST. We will provide you the code. If you reach our voicemail please leave your name\, number\, the event you are registering for\, and the number of family members competing. We will leave you a message with the code if we reach your voicemail.In Smoothcomp\, you need to register and pay for each competitor individually. Please enter the coupon code into only one registration. The code will cover the family discount. \nCOME JOIN OUR TEAMEach year NAGA runs over 65 events a year across the world. We are always looking for new staff members to join the NAGA team.

If this is the first time you are using Smoothcomp you will need to create an account with them before you can register for an event. Brackets are posted on Friday night. It is possible that some competitors are not placed into a bracket.

The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing. The venue has a zero tolerance policy concerning wearing masks and will eject anyone not wearing one. \nSession 1: Children (13 & under) Novice & Beginner – Report time 8:00 AM t- 9:30 AM. \nSession 2: Children (13 & under) Intermediate\, Advanced\, Expert.

You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST.

If this is the first time you are using Smoothcomp you will need to create an account with them before you can register for an event. Brackets are posted on Friday night.

DESCRIPTION:Tournament Information\n									Registration\n									Prizes\n									Schedule\n									Divisions\n									Travel\n							\n			\n									Tournament Information\n					LOCATION:Austin Sports Center1420 Toro Grande BlvdCedar Park\, TX 78613 \nCOVID RELATED PROTOCOLThe NAGA Austin tournament will use four sessions in order to stay under the venue’s capacity limit. The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing. The venue has a zero tolerance policy concerning wearing masks and will eject anyone not wearing one. \nSession 1: Children (13 & under) Novice & Beginner – Report time 8:00 AM t- 9:30 AM. \nSession 2: Children (13 & under) Intermediate\, Advanced\, Expert. All Teens (14-17 years). Report time: 11:45 AM. \nSession 3: All Women. Men (18 & over) Intermediate\, Expert\, Blue\, Purple\, Brown\, Black belt. Report time: 2:30 PM \nSession 4: Men (18 & over) Novice\, Beginner\, White belt. Report time: 5:45 PM \nThe venue for Austin is still at a one spectator per competitor limit. The spectator must accompany the competitor when entering the venue. \nAnyone entering the Austin venue must have a waiver on file with the Austin Sports Center. You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST.

SUMMARY:Detroit Grappling & BJJ Championship - Detroit\, MI
DESCRIPTION:Tournament Information\n									Registration\n									Prizes\n									Schedule\n									Divisions\n									Travel\n							\n			\n									Tournament Information\n					LOCATION:Austin Sports Center1420 Toro Grande BlvdCedar Park\, TX 78613 \nCOVID RELATED PROTOCOLThe NAGA Austin tournament will use four sessions in order to stay under the venue’s capacity limit. The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing. The venue has a zero tolerance policy concerning wearing masks and will eject anyone not wearing one. \nSession 1: Children (13 & under) Novice & Beginner – Report time 8:00 AM t- 9:30 AM. \nSession 2: Children (13 & under) Intermediate\, Advanced\, Expert. All Teens (14-17 years). Report time: 11:45 AM. \nSession 3: All Women. Men (18 & over) Intermediate\, Expert\, Blue\, Purple\, Brown\, Black belt. Report time: 2:30 PM \nSession 4: Men (18 & over) Novice\, Beginner\, White belt. Report time: 5:45 PM \nThe venue for Austin is still at a one spectator per competitor limit. The spectator must accompany the competitor when entering the venue. \nAnyone entering the Austin venue must have a waiver on file with the Austin Sports Center. You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST. We will provide you the code. If you reach our voicemail please leave your name\, number\, the event you are registering for\, and the number of family members competing. We will leave you a message with the code if we reach your voicemail.In Smoothcomp\, you need to register and pay for each competitor individually. Please enter the coupon code into only one registration. The code will cover the family discount. \nCOME JOIN OUR TEAMEach year NAGA runs over 65 events a year across the world. We are always looking for new staff members to join the NAGA team.

If this is the first time you are using Smoothcomp you will need to create an account with them before you can register for an event. Brackets are posted on Friday night. It is possible that some competitors are not placed into a bracket.

The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing.

You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators.

DESCRIPTION:Tournament Information\n									Registration\n									Prizes\n									Schedule\n									Divisions\n									Travel\n							\n			\n									Tournament Information\n					LOCATION:Austin Sports Center1420 Toro Grande BlvdCedar Park\, TX 78613 \nCOVID RELATED PROTOCOLThe NAGA Austin tournament will use four sessions in order to stay under the venue’s capacity limit. The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing. The venue has a zero tolerance policy concerning wearing masks and will eject anyone not wearing one. \nSession 1: Children (13 & under) Novice & Beginner – Report time 8:00 AM t- 9:30 AM. \nSession 2: Children (13 & under) Intermediate\, Advanced\, Expert. All Teens (14-17 years). Report time: 11:45 AM. \nSession 3: All Women. Men (18 & over) Intermediate\, Expert\, Blue\, Purple\, Brown\, Black belt.

The spectator must accompany the competitor when entering the venue. \nAnyone entering the Austin venue must have a waiver on file with the Austin Sports Center. You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST.

We will leave you a message with the code if we reach your voicemail.In Smoothcomp\, you need to register and pay for each competitor individually.

SUMMARY:Paris Grappling & BJJ Championship - Paris\, France
DESCRIPTION:Tournament Information\n									Registration\n									Prizes\n									Schedule\n									Divisions\n									Travel\n							\n			\n									Tournament Information\n					LOCATION:Austin Sports Center1420 Toro Grande BlvdCedar Park\, TX 78613 \nCOVID RELATED PROTOCOLThe NAGA Austin tournament will use four sessions in order to stay under the venue’s capacity limit. The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing. The venue has a zero tolerance policy concerning wearing masks and will eject anyone not wearing one. \nSession 1: Children (13 & under) Novice & Beginner – Report time 8:00 AM t- 9:30 AM. \nSession 2: Children (13 & under) Intermediate\, Advanced\, Expert. All Teens (14-17 years). Report time: 11:45 AM. \nSession 3: All Women. Men (18 & over) Intermediate\, Expert\, Blue\, Purple\, Brown\, Black belt. Report time: 2:30 PM \nSession 4: Men (18 & over) Novice\, Beginner\, White belt. Report time: 5:45 PM \nThe venue for Austin is still at a one spectator per competitor limit. The spectator must accompany the competitor when entering the venue. \nAnyone entering the Austin venue must have a waiver on file with the Austin Sports Center. You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST. We will provide you the code. If you reach our voicemail please leave your name\, number\, the event you are registering for\, and the number of family members competing. We will leave you a message with the code if we reach your voicemail.In Smoothcomp\, you need to register and pay for each competitor individually. Please enter the coupon code into only one registration. The code will cover the family discount. \nCOME JOIN OUR TEAMEach year NAGA runs over 65 events a year across the world. We are always looking for new staff members to join the NAGA team.

If this is the first time you are using Smoothcomp you will need to create an account with them before you can register for an event. Brackets are posted on Friday night. It is possible that some competitors are not placed into a bracket.

The session breakdown follows. If you need more information about how sessions work\, please read our FAQ found HERE. Check in times are posted. \nMasks must be worn at all times except for when on the mat competing. The venue has a zero tolerance policy concerning wearing masks and will eject anyone not wearing one. \nSession 1: Children (13 & under) Novice & Beginner – Report time 8:00 AM t- 9:30 AM. \nSession 2: Children (13 & under) Intermediate\, Advanced\, Expert.

You can do this easily online here\, https://live.austinsportscenter.com/asc-waivers/. Choose the ASC Cedar Park option. \nUSING MULTIPLE SESSIONSDuring Covid we have needed to use a tournament model based on having multiple sessions in order to meet mandated occupancy limits. The use of sessions allows competitors to have multiple family and friends come to the event to support them (though some venues do limit competitors to one spectator no matter what occupancy limits are in place). A schedule of sessions will be posted the week of the event once we know the number of competitors and the current occupancy limit (which very well might differ from what it was when the event was first planned). You will not be allowed entry into the venue until your session is up. You will have a designated check-in/weigh-in time when you can enter the venue. Once you are done competing we ask that you leave the venue. Once all matches are done in a session we will clear out the venue and then allow in the next session. Those who have family members that are in different session\, no worries\, we will make sure you are set to cheer them all on. \nFAMILY RATESWe understand it can be expensive having multiple family members train and then compete. NAGA does offer some relief to families who have multiple family members compete in the same NAGA event. The discount only applies to competitors\, not spectators. When registering a family\, you will register each competitor then enter a coupon code at the payment screen. For 2 family members the discount is $20\, 3 members is $40\, 4 members $60\, and so on.FAMILY RATES ARE ONLY VALID FOR THE FOLLOWING: A parent paying for themselves and their minor child or children (under the age of 18)\, a parent paying for their minor children (under the age of 18).In order to obtain a family discount you must call our office at 860.295.0403\, Monday through Friday\, between the hours of 9AM and 5PM EST.
