Special Point about Weight Classes

Posted on May 20, 2015 by myackulic

When looking at the divisions for weights, please be aware that we are allowing 3lbs for Children’s Gis and 4lbs for Adult Gi…

So…

If your child weighs 58lbs but the cut off is 60, they are still fine as the Gi division weight class is 53-63lbs. It is listed as 50-60lbs but we allow 3 pounds for the gi.

For Adults it is the same but 4 lbs. If your Gi division is 155-170, you are fine as long as you weigh in 174.9lbs or under.

Hope that helps with any confusion.

You still have several days to Register… but sooner is better than later.
