Important Information
Due to current the Vicksburg city regulations, we have to adhere to the following policies:
By entering the facility, you are acknowledging that an inherent risk of exposure to COVID–19 exists in any public place where people are present. You are agreeing not to hold the American Grappling Federation, or the Vickburg Convention Center liable for illness or injury related to exposure to COVID-19.
Masks are required at all times unless you are actively competing or actively coaching (seated in the coaches chair). Anyone under the age of 10 is exempt from wearing a mask, however it is still encouraged.
Temperature checks will be conducted upon entry of the facility. Anyone over 100.1 degrees will be denied entry.
Shoes are mandatory at all times when not on the mats.
Adult competitors are to arrive 1 hour prior to their competition time. This helps us stay under the capacity restrictions. If you arrive too early, you may be refused entry.
Adults are welcome to weigh in as early as 7:30, however kids in line are given priority. Adults that choose to weigh in early cannot remain in the venue until 1 hour prior to their competition time.
Competitors that are done competing (and their spectators) are required to leave the venue. We must stay under 250 people in the building at one time (including facility and AGF staff). If the facility believes we are over the 250 person cap, they will restrict new people from entering.
Doors will open on Saturday at 07:30 AM

Tournament Instructions
- Arrive at the venue approximately 1 hour before your scheduled STAGING time. We often run ahead of schedule.
- Please make sure you are compliant with the Hygiene and Uniform Guidelines (Page 18/19). You will have to pass by the uniform checker prior to being granted entry into the Pit.
- Weigh in prior to reporting to STAGING for your uniform check. We typically will call your division 15 minutes prior to the posted STAGING time.
- Kids can weigh in as soon as the doors open. Adults may weigh in as early as they like as long as there are no kids currently in line. For 2 day tournaments, adults must weigh in on their competition date.
- Once you’ve cleared the uniform check, stand in the PIT line according to your mat number. You will wait here until a ring coordinator calls you.
- Once you enter the PIT, you cannot leave unless given permission by the Pit Manager.
- The STAGING time is not your competition time. The competition times are typically in 1 hour blocks and start 30 minutes after your STAGING time.
