CAZA BJJ Has Two New National Champions

We are extremely pleased to announce that we have two new national champions after the 2022 Australian Jiu-Jitsu Championship (AJJC) which was held over the weekend. Kayden Koh (by submission) and Ava Greason (by points) won gold in their respective events.

Our small team also won 2 silver and 6 bronze medals, bringing our medal tally to 10. Not bad for a team of just 13 competitors.

The AJJC is the second biggest Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu event in Australia each year with only the Pan Pac’s having a higher star rating.
