BIG CONGRATULATIONS to our next generation of Team Renzo Gracie competitors.  

Wesley George our competition team leader took a team of guys to compete last weekend at the FILA Wrestling Open Championships in Johannesburg.  The competition was stiff with top wrestlers and even EFC fighters competing in both Gi & nogi.  Categories were divided according to weight, not belt ranking.

Our team consisted of Wes (brown belt), Leo (blue), Matt, Kiko & Celso - all white belts.

Results:

Wes: gold Gi, gold nogi

Leo: Gold GI, Bronze nogi

Matt: Gold Gi, Silver nogi (narrowly loosing to a purple belt to get the silver in a controversial decision)

Celso: Gold GI, Silver nogi & a medal for fight of the day!

Kiko: Gold Gi, Bronze nogi
