Manila, Philippines – Marianas Pro Manila is poised to make history as one of the  largest jiu-jitsu tournaments in the region, building on the success of previous events. This is the second sold-out international event, set to take place on Saturday through Sunday, April 20-21, has captured the global jiu-jitsu community’s attention with over  800 athletes ready to compete, including over 40 from Guam.

We extend our heartfelt appreciation to the Guam Visitors Bureau (GVB) for their  invaluable support of Marianas Pro Manila. Their commitment to promoting  sportsmanship, talent, and cultural exchange has been instrumental in making this  event a resounding success. GVB’s dedication has not only elevated the stature of jiu jitsu in the region but has also strengthened the enduring ties between Guam and the  Philippines. We are truly grateful for their unwavering support and partnership in  bringing this extraordinary tournament to fruition. 

Additionally, Marianas Pro Manila stands as a premier jiu-jitsu event in its own right, gaining recognition as one of the top tournaments in Manila sanctioned by ASJJF. With over 800 athletes competing, Marianas Pro Manila showcases the excellence and camaraderie of athletes from around the world.
