If you’ve competed in a Smoothcomp tournament before\, log in with your existing account. If not\, create an account first\, then register for this tournament. Brackets are posted Thursday night. There you can see your estimated division start time and mat assignment\, and after the event you can see individual and team results. \nIf you aren’t placed in a bracket\, we likely need to speak with you first. Check your registration for a note. \nRegistration Deadline \nRegister and pay online by the end of Friday’s weigh-in. We do not accept registrations on Saturday\, the day of the event\, or in person at the tournament. \nFamily Discount \nSave $35 for each additional family member competing in the same tournament (2 members: $35 off; 3: $70; 4: $105; and so on). The discount applies to competitors only\, not spectators. \nRegister and pay for each competitor separately in Smoothcomp. Then call 860-537-3686 or email info@nagafighter.com with each competitor’s name and the tournament. We’ll refund the discount to your original form of payment. \nSpectators \nInfants are free. Children 12 & under are $10. All other spectators are $20. Tickets are available online or at the door. \nPayment at the Event \nSpectator tickets and merchandise can be purchased in person with cash or Visa\, MasterCard\, or Discover. American Express is not accepted. \nTeam Names \nCheck with your instructor before registering so you use the correct team name. This ensures team awards are given out accurately. If you used the wrong name\, update it in your Smoothcomp profile for future tournaments. To fix it for this tournament\, email info@nagafighter.com or see us at the event\, since NAGA must change it manually. \nChanging Your Weight Class or Skill Level \nIf your weight changed or you entered it incorrectly\, you can update your division in your Smoothcomp account. \nTransgender Competitors \nCompetitors are required to register and compete in the division corresponding to their biological sex as assigned at birth. For help registering\, contact NAGA at 860-537-3686 or info@nagafighter.com. The NAGA Transgender Policy is available here. \nCredit / Refund Policy \n\nCredits: You can cancel for any reason and receive a full credit toward any future NAGA tournament. Cancel by 12:00 PM on the Friday before the tournament by logging into Smoothcomp and canceling your registration (how to cancel). Credits are valid for 2 years from the cancellation date.\nRefunds: As a general rule\, we do not issue refunds.\n\nNeed Help? \nFor Smoothcomp account\, registration\, weight class\, or academy questions\, start with the Smoothcomp knowledge base. For tournament-specific questions\, contact NAGA at info@nagafighter.com or 860-537-3686. For password issues\, contact support@smoothcomp.com. \nAdding Extra Youth Divisions \nChildren and teens can add one higher weight class or one older age group per division type (no-gi or gi)\, for a maximum of 4 divisions. Smoothcomp doesn’t allow this\, so NAGA adds it manually. Requests must be made by 12:00 PM on the Wednesday before the tournament. Competitors cannot enter multiple skill levels. The extra divisions are $35 each. \nExample: a beginner 11-year-old weighing 85 lbs. could add the 90–99.9 lb. weight class OR the 12–13 age category (not both)\, but not the intermediate skill level. They can do this for no-gi\, gi\, or both\, or go up in weight for one and up in age for the other. \nTo request an extra division\, call 860-537-3686 or email info@nagafighter.com with: \n\nthe tournament\nthe competitor’s name\nup age or up weight\nno-gi\, gi\, or both\nyour email address (if calling)\n\nNAGA will email you an invoice with a payment link.

Blue belts must do expert. No purple belts\, they must compete as an adult.\n\nThe belt levels referenced are based on the BJJ belt system. When choosing the experience of your child or teen\, please consider numerous factors: how long they have trained\, how often they train\, their BJJ belt rank\, how naturally talented they are in the sport\, athleticism in other sports\, and how they do against teammates. Challenge your children and have them compete at an appropriate skill level. NAGA has the right to alter a competitor’s division placement after the competitor interview at the tournament. \nIf a competitor has won the same skill level multiple times at NAGA (and to include the equivalent skill level at other tournaments)\, they may need to move up a skill level. Contact us if your competitor meets these criteria\, and you need assistance selecting their skill level. \nWhen calculating skill level\, take into account all grappling experience (BJJ\, wrestling\, judo\, sambo\, etc.). \nCompetitors cannot do two different skill levels i.e. No-Gi Beginner then Gi Intermediate. \nDivision MergingAt times\, especially with children & teens\, it is necessary to place competitors into a division for which they did not register. This may be due to them being in the bracket by themselves\, it may only have them and a teammate\, etc. Competitors are asked to answer a few questions during the registration process to help place them into a new division. At times\, due to the pool of competitors\, we may need to place them into a division for which they may have answered “no” to this type of move. Whenever a competitor is moved\, we will place a note in their registration that describes the move that was made. Please contact us or speak with us at the event if there are any concerns. If you decide you do not want to compete in the division you were moved into\, you can receive a full credit for a future event by canceling your registration through the Smoothcomp website\, or contacting us. \nYouth Notes \n\nExpert winners are awarded a championship belt. If multiple Expert divisions are won by a competitor\, only one belt will be awarded. A gold medal will be awarded for the second division win.\nNon-expert winners are awarded a children’s championship belt. If multiple divisions are won by a competitor\, only one belt will be awarded. A gold medal will be awarded for the second division win.\nChildren (13 & under) Novice divisions do not allow submissions. Winners are determined by who is ahead in points (takedowns\, position\, guard passing\, etc.) at the end of the match.\nCompetitors can only compete in one skill level.\nWhenever possible\, your child will be matched up with someone their same age or children within a year old (plus or minus)\, and in the same weight class. Please understand that under some circumstances they may have to compete with others slightly older or heavier. When checking in at the tournament\, if a youth was moved outside of their division\, they will be notified\, and asked to approve the change. Notes will also be placed in their Smoothcomp registration.\nIf there are 2 or more girls in a division\, we will create a separate division for the girls. If not\, the female competitor will be given the option to compete with the male competitors.\nA competitor must compete in at least one match to win an award.
