First NAGA event in Canada

The first ever North American Grappling Association tournament happened last Saturday and Sunday. NAGA is known to hold many of the biggest tournaments in the US and it is great to see them finally in Canada. Dragan BJJ had a very good showing and most people that competed took home a medal. Hopefully we win a team trophy but we wont know until the official results page gets updated in a few weeks.
