Event Description
SubLeague's Ground Warrior Submission Challenge comes to Salem, Oregon with the promotion's round-robin format — in smaller divisions, everyone competes against everyone, while larger divisions cap competitors at up to four matches each with the top four advancing to a finals bracket. Matches can end by submission, points, or referee decision, but submission wins carry more weight than a points win when settling round-robin ties. This event takes place January 16, 2027 in Salem, OR. Kids ages 5-12 compete in one- to two-year age brackets, while 13-17-year-olds are split by gender; Beginner divisions are open to white belts or anyone with under 18 months of grappling experience in any style. Only white, royal blue, black, or pink gis are allowed, with no pockets, zippers, or loops, and competitors weigh in immediately before their match in full no-gi uniform.
