What is the Elite 8?

The Jiu Jitsu World League is a premier, internationally recognized tournament that attracts some of the best talent in the sport. The “Elite 8” division is reserved for the very top teams, making it one of the most competitive and challenging brackets in any event.

Placing in the top three of this division means our Adult BJJ program is competing with—and defeating—some of the most established and skilled teams in the nation. It’s a statement that our training methods, strategies, and athletes are world-class.

The Dedication of Our Adult & Master Competitors

This victory was not an accident. It was earned through the grit and perseverance of our Adult and Master competitors. These are individuals who balance careers, families, and daily life with a rigorous training schedule.

• Masters competitors show us that Jiu-Jitsu is a lifelong journey, bringing a level of technical wisdom and strategy to the mat that is truly inspiring.

• Adult competitors in the prime of their athletic careers bring intensity, heart, and cutting-edge technique to every match.

Together, this combined team put their skills to the test and brought home a trophy for the entire academy. Their success is a powerful example for every student, from our preschool program to our beginners, of what can be achieved with commitment.

A Win for the Entire Ceconi BJJ Family

While our competitors were the ones on the podium, this victory belongs to everyone at Ceconi BJJ Magnolia.

It belongs to the training partners who pushed them in every roll. It belongs to the coaches who spent extra time refining their game plans. It belongs to the families who supported their training. It belongs to the brand new white belts who bring new energy to the mats every day.

This 3rd place finish proves that our academy is not just a place to learn Jiu-Jitsu; it’s a place where champions are built. We have cultivated an environment of excellence, camaraderie, and relentless improvement.
