The next edition of ENEMY ON THE FLOOR Submission Wrestling, Grappling & Mixed Martial Arts Competition will be held in Toowoomba on Saturday July 4, 2009.

With the last comp drawing record crowds and competitors, the next event has already received great interest from new and returning competitors.

The competition will again cater both Non Contact and Contact Divisions in attempt to give those that are training in Ju-Jitsu or MMA an opportunity to display and test their skills. With local and visiting promoters showing their interest and support of the competition, previous competitors have been able to progress onto the next level by being approached by these people.

Clubs are encouraged to organise teams to compete on the day as this makes it both enjoyable for the team members but more importantly builds strength within the club by generating team spirit. 

Any coaches or individuals interested in competing should get in touch with Competition Organisor - Pete Hickmott, by either email (.(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)), logging onto the RINGS TOOWOOMBA Website (http://www.ringstoowoomba.com) and following the links, or simply calling 0409 260 201 and leave your details.

Best regards,

Pete “The BULL” Hickmott

4 weeks out and the tourny is shaping up well.  Keep sending through your details and I will return to you asap.

Updated rules for this comp. Make sure those that competed before are aware of the slight modification.

Bull.

Should be another good event. I know CCMMA are coming down from Townsville with a strong team, 5 Rings will be in force, Siam will have a few competing, Hoping to see if we can get Integrated, Pumma and Advance up to make this a truly tough day of competition.

Its a great comp, run well, and in good spirit.

Thanks for the plug BRACE.  it will be good to have you guys on board again supporting MMA growth in Oz.

This comp is shaping up to be a pretty big event.  Apart from our good friends up North bringing down another strong team, I have received confirmation that a couple fighters are going to make the trip up from Melbourne.

if there are any teams out there that have juniors training and are keen on competing, pls get in touch with me at your earlist convenience. Juniors being u/14.

Thanks again to everyone for responding so far but as we know, the more the merrier.  i promise that i will be prepared this time!!

A huge response for this next tournament from both NOvice and Experienced competitors will more than likely result in a decision to hold a split comp, being that we will conduct both divisions for this event.

At the moment we have not made a final decision as to how the divisions will be split, this will be made on the day of competition when we know who and how many, we are working with.

Could all competitors and coaches be at the venue at 11am for weigh ins and rules, it is then that we will make the decision for the comp.

Again, when filling out your Competitor Nomination Forms, please be honest with your training and tournament experience. These questions are clearly marked on the forms.

If any coaches have any questions or concerns for theie fighters please call Pete today or tomorrow. - 0409 260 201.

Remember, the comp is THIS WEEKEND.
Toowoomba PCYC, James Street.

Pete BULL Hickmott.

We have some guys entering for their first time, They are so excited for tomorrows event.
This comp just keeps getting bigger and better.

Just wanted to say thanks to Peter for putting on another great event. Aside from the cold, it was a great day.

Already looking forward to the next one.

Would like to again thank everybody for coming up on the week end to make this event the Biggest so far. I think there was something like 80 competitors on the two events. Massive day out.

Need to apologise to those that travelled for the day going so long. Sincerely Sorry, and thank you all for your patience.  i will be implementing changes for the next event to hopefully limit this situation.

Complements to all that entered. Your skill level is continually increasing and I am glad that I was organising and not competing. Would have easily had my ass handed to me on a number of occassions.

I am already looking towards the next one which will be towards the end of the year, prob early December at this point.After this weekends competition I can see room for more improvement from my end which will hopefully make the day almost hassle free and a fun day for everyone concerned, particularly my Fiance Melissa, who hadn’t seen me for a week then on the only day I have off, I’m away from 7am til 10pm. Sorry babe…

Special thanks go to the teams from CCMMA Townsville, 5Rings Gold Coast, SHINDO Gym Gold Coast, Diamond MMA Coffs Harbour, HJD Brisbane, IMA Brisbane, Advance BJJ Brisbane, BRACE, someone else and someone else, young Harley that drove himself down from Gladstone with no team members just so he could compete (thats dedication right there), the Independants that came along for the comp and the spectators that made so much noise in support of your team and my guys and gals from RINGS Toowoomba. Thanks everyone!!

Soory guys,

Full results will be posted soon here and on our website - http://www.ringstoowoomba.com along with some pics from the day.

Thanks again,

Bull.

Best event by far, an amazing level of skill, team spirit and a massive turn out, all on one bloody cold day, can’t wait until the next one

Many thanks to Peter Hickmont and staff for hosting a great event. I know my lads, both winners and looses really enjoyed themselves and will be back for more of the same on the next one. ,,,could have been colder though.

Big thumbs up to Gav from Fight Club who took out two divisions in Advanced on very short notice- apparently head kicks and submissions are a winning formula!

Gav is taking the MMA classes at fight Club whilst Daniel is in Brazil, and is doing a top job on and off the mat. Nice work champion.

Great event guys, cp’t for the bloody cold weather.
looking forward to the next one
