CAZA BJJ Results From The 2018 Queensland State Titles

This biggest Brazilian Jiu-jitsu tournament in Queensland for 2018, the state championship, was held last Sunday in Brisbane. CAZA BJJ was there, of course, and the results achieved by our members were very impressive.

The state championship is the only four-star tournament of the year, meaning any points scored are the maximum achievable. This is good news for a BJJ club of CAZA’s size, especially considering that we are not part of a franchise of clubs.
