The World Professional Jiu-Jitsu Championship is set to take place April 23-25, 2015, in Abu Dhabi, UAE, at the brand new FGB Arena. The venue was built primarily for Jiu-Jitsu competitions, and it is the first of its kind in the world.

According to Clark, only throughout the U.S. National Pro Jiu-Jitsu Championship, athletes will have a chance to stamp their passports to one of the biggest Jiu-Jitsu events in the planet, and win travel packages compete in Abu Dhabi.

Two events have been confirmed in American soil so far. The first stop will be at Santa Barbara City College, California, and it is scheduled for Sunday,  January 11th. The following WPJJC qualifying event is programed to be held in Tampa, Florida, February 28th. A third leg of the U.S. National Pro is being negotiated and it’s going to be announced shortly.

The registration deadline is Jan. 6th.

UAE Jiu-Jitsu Federation Requires a valid passport in order to register for the qualifiers. ONLY passport holders of North American countries are allowed to compete at U.S. National Pro Jiu-Jitsu Championship.

The great news is that the UAEJJF has redesigned the requirements for obtaining the benefits associated to the prize.
