UMA No Gi Groundfighting Event!


Had a great day today, both as a competitor and referee; collected the silver medal in the Masters division, winning one via kimura and losing to a guillotine from the category winner Stuart Barrs. After a short break it was straight into refereeing and I witnessed some very exciting and close fought matches; slick guard passes, smooth mounts and lightning fast back takes shared the limelight with arm bars, triangles and chokes a plenty.


All competitors were a credit to themselves and their clubs and it was a pleasure to be involved once again on a great day of grappling in the UK.
