1st Hawaiian Pro-Am Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Series
2000 Tournament Rankings
This is Joao Morais and the Brazilian & North Shore Freestyle Jiu-Jitsu Alliance's contribution in order
to create better matchups when creating the keys for future BJJ tournaments in Hawaii. The scoring
for the rankings are unique, in that a competitor is encouraged to score as many points as possible
using the normal BJJ point system (Takedowns 2 points, Sweeps 2 points, Knee on the belly 2 points,
Passing guard 3 points, Mounting 4 points, Back 4 points). However, for matches that end in
submissions the competitor is awarded an additional 10 points, which is added to the points that they
accumulated throughout the match. The points are accumulated and 20 points are added for each 1st place
finish and 10 points for a 2nd place finish. The total score of each fighter will be recorded and at the end
of the tournament. The tournament organizers are maintaining on record the total points of each fighter.
The points will be added to the points the fighter gets at the next tournament until all four tournaments
are completed. At the end of the four tournament series, the competitor with the most points will be
awarded as the most technical fighter for that belt ranking (white, blue, or purple).

Relson Gracie Seminar Schedule
Relson Gracie is hitting the road for a series of seminars. Now is your chance
to learn from Professor Helio's second oldest son! Relson is extremely technical
