Michigan Grappling Open coming up...

Elite Federation Of Grapplers | The Newest Premier Grappling Association

Looks pretty interesting to me.

Us Michigan grapplers should make it interesting and give it a good turn-out. I like that they are attempting to use the tournament to create a grappling circuit in Michigan.

I'm hoping there is a good turnout. I'm trying to get guys from my gym to attend rather than driving to Gary, IN for C3.

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but figured some Michigan grapplers would be looking at it.

I'm going to MSU this fall, do they have a BJJ club? Is there an "unofficial" collection of BJJ guys that train together there? Thanks.

It's going to be hard to be away from my BJJ schools at home .
