It was an exciting August with competitions as well as preparations for upcoming competitions and MMA fights.
Polaris Pro 11
Our wrestling coach Silviu won the qualifier for Polaris Pro 11 in Manchester which was on the 31st of August. We all went down to support his debut. Unfortunately after an explosive start against the tough Jed Hue Silviu sustained a rib injury that took him out of the match. We wish him a speedy recovery, and if you know Silviu, you know he will come back stronger from this.
MMA
November is MMA month as we have three competitors, with two debuts for Wave. Ollie, Steve and Vinny are all fighting in East London. email us for tickets at info@wavebjj.co giving the name of the person you are supporting.
All Stars Comp
We also had two guys competing at the All Stars competition in Brentford on the 1st of September. It was Ed’s first competition at purple belt and as he didn’t want to lose his “gains” of two kilograms he fought up a weight at under 90kg. He managed to win gold after escaping an arm bar in a tough match. Andrius fought three tough opponents at blue belt and managed to take them all down with single leg take downs. He lost a tough final to get silver.
