REMINDERS for athletes competing at FitCon: Early Weigh-ins for the American Open Grappling Tournament Saturday will actually start 24 hrs earlier on Friday at 10am-11:30am. There will also be a later weigh in Friday from 5-7pm. As always there are same day weigh-ins on Saturday from 8-9am. The weigh in area will be at the same location as the Grappling Tournament in Hall 4 of the Salt Palace. Please plan accordingly! The tournament will kick off at 10am with a rules brief by the Head Referee, Tony Ventrano, and then immediately the No-Gi contest will start with Kids, Women and Men brackets in that order. Once No-gi is complete, the Gi contests will commence. Again, if you plan on competing at the tournament, and want to be on the athlete list to get into the FitCon venue FREE on both Friday and Saturday, you need to register by Thursday 5pm. If not, you may still enter the tournament, but will have to purchase a general admission ticket to get into the venue. As always verified Black Belts compete FREE. All competitors may challenge higher skillsets and weight class brackets for no additional entry fees. All sweeps, throws, and submissions are legal with the exception of a few constraints which Tony will explain at the rules brief. Registration portal is at: utahgrappling.com
