The world grappling championship which was organised by the federation last year for the first time, hasn’t interrupted Federation’s work agenda. On the contrary, the second part of the season was even more busy then the first. Namely, in five month only, the record number of participants was recorded, Panevezys entered the scene of grappling fights, kimono discipline was introduced and the professional fight for the Champions Title of the Baltic States was organised together with the Bushido Federation.
