Wait...
The de
velopment of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Mauritius Island is still in progress, yet the MBJJF reached 
another important milestone in January of this year. For the first time, the MBJJF organized the Argy Open Regional BJJ Competition with over one hundred athletes in different categories.
The tournament was held in the Argy BJJ Club, a small venue locality in the east of the island that is now affiliated with MBJJF. With 30 athletes training BJJ, the club is the only sports club in the area. According to Sharonne Maulette, MBJJF Event Coordinator, the idea was to establish BJJ in the Island and to create a better environment near the locality.
“We want to encourage more youngsters to enroll in sports and choose the right path for their lives”, said Maulette of the goals the MBJJF has for Mauritius Islands.

The mission of the SJJIF is to unify and organize existing Sport Jiu-Jitsu, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and Jiu-Jitsu national and/or territorial federations that share the vision of reaching Olympic greatness while preserving the unique history, culture, philosophy, and lineage of our sport.
The SJJIF believes that together, the SJJIF with its National Federations and members, will continue to develop the growing network of likeminded members who envision greater opportunities for our athletes and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu as we believe that our athletes deserve an equal right to Olympic greatness!
Together, we will prove that we are a stand-alone sport and gain recognition and admittance into the Olympic program as a competition event of the Olympic Games, Paralympic Games, Deaflympics and in all other games of the Olympic cycle.
