BJJ Camp Mock Tournament Photos and Results

A tournament is always a good way to close the BJJ Summer Camp to see a week of learning put to the test.  Senior students refined their techniques and new students got immersed and addicted to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in one week.  Here are the results in the ugliest-drawn brackets:

Thanks to Quincy BJJ Competitors and Supporters!

I just wanted to post a public “Thank You” to all the folks who joined me at the Revolution July 13th and 14th!  Thanks to Christan, I had the backup coaching I needed and we have some great videos of the matches to dissect and reflect upon.  Thanks to Jerry, Lollo, Estella and Erin for taking the time and making the journey out to support their kids and the team.  And Thanks to T-Town MMA for covering us when we were short-handed here and there! 🙂
