Every competitor will receive a complimentary themed shirt, poster, and giveaway that can be picked up at the Prize Table at the event.

The deadline to guarantee your shirt size is December 10 @ 11:59pm. After that, registration will still come with a shirt but will be picked from the sizes we have available at the event.

Don’t forget to pick them up! We cannot mail any items after the event.

Location:
Santiago Canyon College - Gym
8045 E Chapman Ave, Orange, CA 92869

Search for “Santiago Canyon College Gym” in Google Maps so that it directs you straight to our event instead of somewhere else in the school.

Parking is $2 per venue requirements, paid at the kiosks using card payments and your license plate number.

There is not space at this venue to set up tents like at our usual events.

Seating:
We will not have bleachers for this event. Instead, we will have a section where families are welcome to bring a picnic blanket and chairs, and set up a cozy spot for themselves!

Skill divisions:
This event will still create divisions based on gender, weight, and age. Competitors will then also be separated by time spent training BJJ, Wrestling, or Judo as of the day of the event (January 11, 2026). The categories are:

  • Up to 6 months

  • 6-12 months

  • 12-18 months

  • 18+ months

Please select the time frame that indicates when they FIRST started training BJJ, Wrestling, or Judo.

Competitors may register UP in time training, but may not move down.

Cancellations:
When a competitor has to cancel, we will issue a credit for the original amount paid if we are notified by the correction deadline below. We do not issue refunds at any time or for any reason.
