The FBJJF sponsors the champions of white belt absolute categories with 300 euros for the traveling costs to the IBJJF No-Gi Mundial 2017 OR the IBJJF European Opens 2018.

All athletes who compete in their own weight categories are eligible to register for the absolute category. The absolute category registration will be at the competition arena and only weight category registration is available prior to the competition.

The FBJJF sponsorship is a reimbursement of traveling costs verified with receipts. The FBJJF will reimburse any traveling costs (flights, registration fees, accommodation) up to 800 euros for the IBJJF No-Gi Mundial 2017 regardless of the date of purchase. Therefore, you may choose to book your flights or register for the No-Gi Mundial beforehand and the FBJJF will reimburse you afterwards.

Weigh-in will be with the rash guard and shorts right before the first fight. If a fighter does not make the weight, he/she will be disqualified.

The fighter must wear a rash guard and plain black, white or black with white board shorts without pockets or metal/plastic parts that can cause injury. The color of the rash guard can be of your choosing but we recommend the official black, white or black with white and containing at least 10% of the fighter’s belt color. The rash guard can be either short- or long-sleeved. T-shirts and fighting without a shirt is not allowed. The shorts must be loose board shorts, spandex shorts are not allowed. The shorts may carry the logos of the manufacturer and/or team anywhere, but the shorts main color must be plain black or white or black with white.
