With about a year left before the next ADCC world championships of 2022, the first official trial event is coming up. The ADCC European, the Middle East and African trials will take place this weekend in Poznan, Poland on Saturday 18th 2021. The event has attracted all the best No Gi competitors in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
There are some big names and very dangerous up-and-coming grapplers. 5x ADCC worlds vet Nicolas Renier in the 66kg division. Oliver Taza, the former member of Danaher’s death squad and ADCC vet will participate in the 77kg division.
There are also some 2019 European trial winners. Mraz Avyan, who won the 99kg division in 2019, but could not compete in the ADCC championship, returns back to the division. In the heavyweight division, Poland’s Mateusz Juskowiak is back.
