How does division merging work?

*The Charles Gracie Tournament will never combine male and female divisions.

-After our registration closes and the deadline for changes has ended our tournament organizers begin formatting brackets. In the event that a competitor is left alone in a division, they will merge the competitor with the nearest weight and/or age division. Our organizers take safety as the absolute top priority, any and all changes made will be done so with the competitors safety at the forefront of the decision. If no default mergers are available, the competitor will be issued a full refund of their registration.
