The final event of the 2026 season is confirmed. The Grappling Series returns to Neptune Stadium on Sunday 22 November for the Cork Open Fall 2026, and early bird registration is open now at the lowest price of the year.
Cork Open Fall 2026
Date: 22 November 2026
Time: 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM
Location: Neptune Stadium, Cork
Format: Single Elimination
Divisions: Gi & No-Gi
One Last Push for the Year
There are three months between now and competition day, which is a proper training block. Enough time to sharpen the details, work on the positions that let you down last time, and arrive in November ready to go.
If you competed at the Winter or Summer events, this is your chance to show how far you have come since. If you have been thinking about your first competition all year, this is the one to commit to.
Who Should Register?
Everyone is welcome.
- Experienced competitors: close out the season strong and climb the academy leaderboard
- First-timers: a friendly, well-organised event to get that first competition under your belt
- Kids and juniors: a structured environment to test their skills and build confidence
- Academies: bring the team along and finish the year with points on the board
Early Bird Pricing
Registration is live on Smoothcomp and the early bird rate saves you up to 20% on the standard entry price. The price goes up twice as the event gets closer, so signing up now is the cheapest it will ever be.
25% Off for Two Divisions
Entering two divisions? Your second one is half price. So if you do both Gi and No-Gi, you pay full price for the first entry and half for the second, which works out at 25% off the two together.
Registration closes on 16 November, and divisions fill up well before that.
Prizes Coming Soon
We are still working out the prize details for this one. As with every event this season, there will be Ground Game vouchers on the line, and we will announce exactly what is up for grabs shortly. Keep an eye on the news page and our socials.
