AJPTour Heads to Turin on December 8th for the Second Stop of the National Tour

The AJP Tour has returned to Italy for its second prestigious event in the Italian National Ranking, the highly anticipated Turin International Pro, on December 8th 2024. Following the successful launch of the Italian and Spanish National Ranking series, highlighted in a previous article focusing on exclusive prizes and regional importance, this Turin event underscores the AJP Tour’s commitment to fostering a competitive Jiu-Jitsu landscape in Europe.

Turin’s International Pro event brings a surge of energy and determination among athletes eager to secure their place on the global stage. With the AJP Tour’s carefully structured point system, performances here will significantly impact athletes’ trajectories toward the pinnacle of international competition: the 2025 Abu Dhabi World Pro and the AD Grand Slam Rome.

Building on the momentum established by the initial National Ranking event, the Turin International Pro presents an unparalleled opportunity for both seasoned competitors and rising stars across divisions, from Kids and Youth to Adults and Masters. Athletes are not only driven by the chance to accumulate points but are also inspired by the prospect of competing in world-class venues, reinforcing Italy’s position as a vital hub for high-level Jiu-Jitsu competition.

Reflecting on the broader European circuit, this event serves as a key milestone within a fiercely competitive environment, encouraging top-level athletes to showcase their skills. Like its counterparts across the Italian and Spanish Rankings, the Turin International Pro emphasizes excellence, creating a pathway to international prominence while cultivating regional talent pools.

The stakes are high; points earned here play a crucial role in determining qualification for the marquee events hosted by the AJP, and the road to Rome and Abu Dhabi is paved with dedication, talent, and ambition. For every competitor stepping onto the mats, Turin symbolizes more than a bout — it is a decisive step toward achieving international recognition and championship glory.
