Gracie Invitational info

EDIT: The original link that I posted on Monday (the previous post) for the sign up was wrong. I had to re-register on the graciefighter.com website. If you signed up w/ the wrong link (the right registration page should say "Gracie Invitational" on the top), re-register. I called Gracie's gym, and I was told that you won't be charged if you signed up in the wrong registration page.

This page contains new info and a link for registration. Seems to be only Gi-Less for adults, which should make things go much faster than last time.

Gracie Registration is working!

Finally! I called Gracie's gym, and apparently they are still having the tourney this Sat (on the 26th). However, the schedule during the day has changed. The changes has been made on the graciefighter.com website. Here's the link for online registration.

I hope to see most of the team there.
