Noosa locals run sold-out Brazilian Jujitsu event

William Dias, who is a world champion in the sport, walked away with $5000.

The Tough Roll GP 2022 Brazilian Jujitsu event was held at Noosa Peppers Resort last weekend in a sold out event organised by Noosa locals Ronaldo and Brooke Mendes Dos Santos.

Brazilian man William Dias from Perth, who is a world champion in the sport, won the main event being a Grand Pix final with eight black belts, walking away with $5000.

There was over $10,000 worth of prize money at this event, and 30 competitors including internationals from Brazil, Croatia, New Zealand, and Romania.

Local Noosa businesses jumped on board to sponsor the event, as they were excited to bring something new to Noosa, and could see how big martial arts is growing in Australia.

Ronaldo and Brooke will be opening a Tough Roll HQ in Maroochydore, expected to open the end of January, for anyone to learn Brazilian Jiujitsu, and so much more.
