Submission Grappling • Netherlands

Submission
or Overtime.

A compact, high-pressure grappling format built around finishes. No points. No advantages. No judges' decisions.

Main divisions

Double elimination.
More chances to fight.

Main divisions use a winners bracket and a losers bracket. Winners-bracket matches are five minutes; losers-bracket matches are shortened to three minutes to keep the event moving. The bronze final returns to five minutes. The Absolute remains single elimination.
