GRANTS

We pay for most expenses associated with training and competing in grappling sports. We provide funds directly to clubs, gyms, or teams that train youth in these sports. We prioritize youth in low-income households, but provide funds for all youth who desire to train.

CAMPS, CLINICS, & YOUTH OUTREACH

We tap into the vast amount of expertise we’re surrounded with, and host grappling camps and clinics for youth to help them improve their skills on the mat. All of our events are free for participants. We host personal development events, guest speakers, and other life-focused learning opportunities for young athletes. We think grappling teaches determination, work ethic, and discipline better than most things out there, but we are working to produce well-rounded adults with the skills and knowledge to succeed in life.

Happy Team Posing

HELP FUND A CHILD IN NEED

The #1 reason low-income kids don't compete in sports is cost. Help today's youth find their joy in life, all donations count!

Pain is nothing compared to what it feels like to quit. Give everything you got today for tomorrow may never come.
