The weekend just gone has been a HUGE one!
Adam travelled with a few of the fellow Machado Grapplers from Western Australia to compete in the annual 'The Gathering' Brazilian Jiu Jitsu competition.
The results were amazing! Tyrone (Toots) took out the double gold! Weight division and absolute. He never looked in trouble and dominated all that he fought.
Adam Jacques landed a perfect flying arm-bar (again) and had his opponent tapping before he hit the ground! Adam only lost to Tyrone in the final, amazing to have AMMA as 1 and 2 in the division.
News from the WEST!
Our grappling team also competed in the 'WA BJJ Invitational' competition held on Sunday.
Peter Parsons took out the GOLD in his weight division.
Dion took out the GOLD in his weight division.
Patrick took out the SILVER in his weight division.
CJ took out the BRONZE in his weight division.
Huge Thanks to Gavin Taylor for helping out on the day.
MMA Event!
On the same weekend as all the above, our Purple Belt JED stepped into the ring to compete in an MMA Event. Jed has had numerous fights and stepped up to a very strong opponent.
The fight was looking good with the landing some decent strikes from standing.
One small mistake saw Jed on his back with his opponent in his guard. Jed controlled this well, throwing up a few submission attempts - however it wasn't his day and unfortunately lost via a choke.
