The Forum returns this May!
It’s been a full year since our last event, and we’re excited to officially announce that The Forum is back on May 30th. Join us at the Kootenai County Fairgrounds for a full day of Jiu Jitsu competition, exciting matchups, and an electric atmosphere for athletes, coaches, and spectators.
The Forum has always been about bringing the grappling community together. Competitors, academies, and fans from across the region gather to test themselves, support their teammates, and celebrate the sport we all love. After a year away, we’re looking forward to reconnecting with the community and delivering an event that highlights the skill, sportsmanship, and intensity that make Jiu Jitsu special.
To celebrate our return, we’re making this event more accessible than ever.
For this tournament only, all competitors ranked purple belt and above will receive FREE registration. Our goal is to encourage more upper belts to compete, create deeper divisions, and produce the kind of high-level matchups that everyone wants to see.
We’ve also significantly reduced the registration price for all other competitors. For the May 30th event only, registration will be just $20. We hope this lower entry cost encourages more athletes, from first-time competitors to seasoned veterans, to step onto the mats and be part of the action.
Please note that both the free registration for purple belts and the reduced $20 entry fee are special, one-time promotions for the May 30th event only. Future tournaments later this year will return to our standard registration pricing.
Whether you’re stepping onto the mats to compete, coaching your teammates, or coming out to watch some incredible grappling, The Forum promises a full day of intense matches, great sportsmanship, and a strong sense of community.
Mark your calendars for May 30th, and get ready for the return of The Forum. We can’t wait to see everyone back on the mats.
Registration is open now on Smoothcomp
