2026 JJFP National Jujitsu Fighting Trials

The Jiu-Jitsu Fighting Trials concluded successfully, showcasing athletes’ skill, discipline, and competitive readiness as they gear up for international competition.

Jiu-Jitsu fighting is moving forward. With the Southeast Asia Regionals in Cambodia, Asian Championships in Kazakhstan, and World Championships in Italy in 2026, we are proud of the team’s growth, welcoming both fresh faces and seasoned competitors to represent the flag.

Our future shines bright thanks to the dedication of the team’s coaches, mat referees, and officials—the true captains and champions of Philippine Jiu-Jitsu fighting.

We express our gratitude to the Presidential Communications Office, Office of the President, Philippine Sports Commission and POC - Philippine Olympic Committee - Olympic.PH for their recognition and support of the Ju-jitsu Fighting Philippines 33rd Southeast Asian Games 2025 delegates. 🇵🇭 Muli, maraming salamat po!

🥋 HOW JU-JITSU FIGHTING WORKS:

**Part 1: Striking**
Semi-contact to body & side of head. No straight punches to face. No below-the-belt strikes.

**Part 2: Takedowns**
Gi grab = no more striking. Judo throws or wrestling takedowns. Ippon for clean ex*****on.

**Part 3: Grappling**
Submissions (straight footlock & kneebar allowed) or 15-second hold = ippon.

Can you score with control in Phase 1?
Can you transition cleanly in Phase 2?
Can you pin or finish in Phase 3?
