Traveling to the event in the COVID era

Update! As of 3/19/21 these will become guidelines but not a requirement. Official Document Here

CT Has has a travel restriction in place. Only a few neighboring states are allowed for completely unrestricted travel. If you are coming from a restricted state you can still come! In order to come you must follow the guidelines. They allow people to come if you follow any one of the following

  • Stay in the state for less than 24 hours
  • Test negative for COVID up to 72 hours in advance
    • We have found using the mail in test has been the most reliable way to get a timely result.
    • Tests are widely available and free in the state of CT
  • Quarantine in state for two weeks.

The full travel guidelines are posted here. CT Travel Guidelines

COVID Precautions at the event

We will be taking social distancing precautions during this event. Only competitors will be allowed. Only those fighting should be near the arena. This will be our 3rd event during covid and we have a spotless record so far. We aim to keep it that way.

  • You must wear a mask
  • In addition to masks we have face shields as well
  • Get tested before you come if you can
  • Follow the CT Travel Guidelines
  • Both socially distanced indoor pits and heated outdoor pit space will be available.
