This weekend Fabio Novaes BJJ took the NAGA Pan Ams by storm.
No seriously. By storm.
This was far and away the biggest turn out we have had for a competition.
(We are missing four girls in this picture.)
We had more female competitors at this tournament then we had total for the Miami Open, most of them were competing for their first time, and every single one of our girls placed! I am beyond proud of them, and not just because they all did well, but because they had the courage to get out there and do it.
This tournament was awesome. Everyone who competed has been busting their asses for the past couple of months getting ready for it, and everyone had their hard work rewarded on the mat, not to mention the fact that because everyone pushed themselves so hard in their training, it benefited the team as a whole. We are all better grapplers now then we would be if we didn't have this tournament to drive everyone forward.
Nicely done, Team Fabio Novaes!

And not to neglect the ever so slightly less pretty side of the team:
Thank you for all that you do Fabio and Roberta!!
