UKBJJA RANKING COMPETITIONS

How are rankings calculated?

• Athletes must be UKBJJA members at the time of the competition
• Athletes must be UK residents to qualify for the £500 sponsorship prize
• We can not back-date points to before an athlete joined the UKBJJA
• If an athlete competes in two different age groups (e.g. adults and masters) over the course of the year, those results are counted separately – they don’t add together
• Likewise, if an athlete competes at two different belts (e.g. because of promotion), those results are counted separately
• The points tallies are calculated as follows:
  Points (weight division):
  Gold = 9
  Silver = 3
  Bronze = 1
  Points (open weight):
  Gold = 13.5
  Silver = 4.5
  Bronze = 1.5
  Multipliers:
  Ranking Event Status (x1, x2 or x4)
  EXAMPLES:
• A weight category gold at The British Open would be worth 9 pts x 4 (4* ranking event) = 36
• A silver in the absolute at the Newquay Open would be worth 4.5 x 2 (2* ranking event) = 9
