A great day at the Welsh Open.

Well done to Chris and his team on a well organised event.

This event is getting bigger and better every year and the introduction of the repechage this year makes it even more attractive.

Very proud of my team, some great performances and lots of medals. Some of my guys had 5 or 6 fights and didn't get a medal, got to love the repechage!

Also coming second in the team points is a massive achievement for what is one part time club and our fledgling affiliate BJJ team at Tillery Combat.

Had a great time refereeing the Brown Belts, was getting very worried as Oli and Norbi got into the final minute as it was such a close fight, was a relief when Norbi got the sub.

Some great fights throughout all the age brackets and the belts.

Great catching up with the usual suspects and I'm sure we will be back with an even bigger team next year.
