WAMMA NextGen

So much has happened in April!
It’s been a jam-packed month of BJJ and wrestling tournaments. Every single weekend we’ve had athletes competing, and on two weekends, we even had events happening at the same time.

We kicked things off on April 4 in Regina, Saskatchewan at the Western Kids Open. Four of our athletes made the trip, and they did not disappoint.
They came away with medals in both gi and no-gi, but more importantly, they showed incredible sportsmanship and a willingness to learn from every single match.

Proud of this group for setting the tone for the month.

WAMMA NextGen sent 5 athletes to the Alberta Open this weekend. Each athlete delivered strong performances on the mats.

Jordan Blais competed in the 70 kg division, stepping into a new weight class and securing gold. His bracket featured a notably heated and hard-fought match against Tyssen Hansen of the Calgary Dinos.

Anton S., joining us from Germany this year, competing in the U17 80 kg division, had a dominant showing, winning all of his matches to earn gold.

TJ Franzman competed in the U19 60 kg division, battling through a competitive bracket to finish 3rd.

In the younger divisions, Lucas (Novice) and Matteo (Tyke) both double bracketed, taking on multiple back-to-back matches, and each secured gold in both weight classes they entered.

We are very proud of our wrestlers — not only for their results, but for how they conduct themselves, their sportsmanship, and their dedication to becoming the best they can be.

A great weekend of competition and development for the team! Way to go !!
