Gracie Open Registration?

I haven't been able to find the online registration for the Gracie Open yet. Anyone else have any luck?

Team logo?

Hi:

I found an old picture that I drew a while back, and I thought it would make a cool team logo. Any suggestions about the pic or possible background would be cool.

BTW, I've tried to call the Gracie Academy, but I keep getting the voice mail. I'll keep calling until 5pm, and update if neccessary.

Hi, my fellow grappling teammates!

I have called the Gracie Academy at Concord yesterday, and I was told they had open mat night tomorrow (Fri., 8/9) at 6 p.m. It's pretty useful for those who are competing in the Gracie Open, because most of the grapplers in there are at a high level. I tried calling today for confirmation and if there was a walk-in cost, but I only got the answering machine. I'll try to contact them tomorrow for more info, so be ready for an update!
