FUJI BJJ Quad Cities Fall Open
Organized by FUJI BJJ
October 3, 2026 brings FUJI BJJ's Quad Cities Fall Open to Bettendorf, Iowa, with gi and no-gi divisions for every belt level. The tournament serves competitors across the Quad Cities area of Iowa and Illinois.
Event Description
FUJI BJJ brings its long-running national tournament series to the Quad Cities this fall, with the same age, belt, and weight-class structure the promotion has used at stops across the country for well over a decade. Competitors can enter gi, no-gi, or both with a combo discount, and FUJI's standard 2lb weigh-in allowance keeps a stray pound from turning into a disqualification. Bracket sizes are adjusted so competitors get more than a single match whenever the division allows it. The Quad Cities Fall Open runs Saturday, October 3, 2026, in Bettendorf, Iowa, and welcomes everyone from first-time white belts to seasoned black belts across all age divisions. Registration is handled entirely online through the event's Smoothcomp page at fujibjj.smoothcomp.com; spectators over age 12 typically pay a gate fee, and each competitor can bring one coach to their corner.

About FUJI BJJ
FUJI BJJ is the tournament series run by Fuji Sports, the martial-arts gi and apparel brand, launched in 2007. It runs gi and no-gi events for kids through adults across roughly ten US regions, using IBJJF-style point scoring.
Rules
FUJI BJJ runs one of the larger tournament circuits in the United States, with gi and no-gi divisions for kids and adults and a reputation for beginner-friendly, well-organized events.
FUJI's scoring is closely based on IBJJF rules: the same positional point values, advantages for near-scores and submission attempts, and a similar penalty structure. Match times scale with belt — roughly 5 minutes at white belt up to 8 minutes for brown and black belts — so IBJJF competitors will find the format immediately familiar.
Always confirm the official rulebook before you compete — organizations update rules between seasons. See the official event page for current rules.
