2009 Bay Area BJJ championships

 IMG_0593-converted

Today was the first annual Bay Area Brazilian Jui-Jitsu championships held in Alameda, CA. I was there for the Kids (ages 5-15) White to Green belt Division taking pictures and a little video. Being that it was the first one held there was a little organization issues but nothing major. The event was heldin a middle school gym and the house was packed wall to wall. I’d bet that next year they will have it in a larger facility judging by the success they had today.

The kids competing were all good sports and the judges and coaches were also really helpful. As you come to expect in competitions with young kids there is always that loud over aggressive parent that yells a bit too much. Other then that all the kids seem to enjoy the event and I’m always amazed at the level of still these young boys and girls have in Jui-Jitsu.
