RiverCity Ju-Jitsu Tournament – Quintet Style

Experience the thrill of team-based submission grappling at the RiverCity Fit Expo with our exciting RiverCity Ju-Jitsu Tournament in authentic Quintet style!
Inspired by the legendary format created by Kazushi Sakuraba, this is a high-stakes team survival challenge: Assemble a squad of 5 grapplers and battle in a winner-stays-on elimination format. Submit your opponent to stay on the mat and face the next challenger – one dominant athlete could potentially sweep an entire team! If a match ends in a draw (no submission within the time limit), both competitors are eliminated, keeping the action intense and unforgiving.
This submission-only event emphasizes skill, strategy, and endurance – no points, just pure grappling survival.
