The ADCC Italy National Championship has been organized through 6 exciting tournements in different towns across Italy: the best Italian teams and athlets took part and competed to enter in the classements with the goal to be the best and to win the prestigious title of ADCC National Champion. The good level of organization and refereeing has been crucial to obtain a great exposure in the Martial Arts and Combat Sport italian community, increasing the number of athlets and teams who reached the ADCC Italy Federation. Last June the best Submission Fighters in Italy were crowned and the National ADCC Italy Team was formed to compete at the next ADCC Europe Trial in January 2009 and trying to reach the prestigious ADCC World Finals 2009.
 
During the season ADCC Italy has organized also two top international events: the ADCC Open Italy 2007 in Massa Carrara and the ADCC Italy Submission Fighting Iron Men in Livorno; exciting fights, money prizes for winners, great exposure and advertising on the most important international web magazines and portals.

 “It was an exciting and successful year – stated Filippo Leone – the level of italian fighters is increasing and the possibilities we offer to our fighters to fight continuously and against international athlets will help in this direction. ADCC is really growing as in Italy as in Europe through a hard work: personally, I hope our athlets will make a good job in the next ADCC continental top events, the 1st ADCC Submission Fighting European Championship and the ADCC Europe trials…my goal is to take some italian athlets to the Worlds finals, and we are working hard to make this happen, I am used to work hard to realise my dreams and this is what I am going to do!”

Thanks to all ADCC Italy staff and to all fighters, trainers and promoters who support our work with great heart and passion, making our Federation and our sport everyday bigger!

At the end of September 2008 the new season will have the great opening with the National Trials to select the athlets who will compete at the 1st ADCC Submission Fighting European Championship representing the national Team ADCC Italy. Stay tuned…..
