Saulo Ribeiro at the 2013 Worlds Masters
The IBJJF announced earlier today that the full registration capacity for the 2015 World Masters Jiu-Jitsu championship has been reached.
With that, the registration process was closed more than a month prior to the original deadline of September 16th.
Actually, the IBJJF closed the registrations for the first time today around noon (PST), when the number of athletes reached 2,000.
Then, they were able to re-open the registration process once they recalculated the event’s capacity.
The new period lasted less than three hours until the new full capacity was reached.
The 2015 edition of the Worlds Masters will be the largest since event’s creation in 2012, with 2,301 athletes.
The event is scheduled September 25-26, at the Cashman Center, in Las Vegas.
