The grappling divsion is fairly new to the Supercop, but by no means new to any working Officer that is out there. What I mean by that is every officer learns some sort of control tactics, and that is what our grappling divison is all about. We use NAGA rules for the event with 2, 3 minute rounds. You can win on points or by submission. One Officer even won by an armbar that brought the crowd to their feet. Let me say this though, I would not even want to grapple with the guy that lost!! If you have a backround in wrestling or grappling come on out and fight!! The winners of each division, of course, get beautiful title belts. Just look at LT.
