What a weekend it has been! We are beyond thrilled to announce that Reynnahn Bradley, at just seven years old, has claimed the prestigious title of Elite: World Champion in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) 🏆. Competing against the world's best young grapplers in Wolverhampton, Ren’s victory is a testament to his incredible talent, dedication, and hard work.

The Journey to World Champion

Ren’s journey to the top has been nothing short of extraordinary. Despite having started competing only ten months ago, he has taken the BJJ world by storm. With over 1,600 entrants across all divisions, the Elite Worlds was a formidable challenge, yet Ren faced it head-on.

His path to the final was marked by dominant performances, and in the championship match, he secured his victory with a flawless rear-naked choke, extending his winning streak to an impressive 19 consecutive matches in his division. This remarkable achievement highlights Ren’s position among the elite in the sport.

A Year of Triumphs

2024 has been a monumental year for Ren, filled with numerous victories that paved the way to his world championship win. Here’s a look at his incredible accomplishments:

• January: Crowned Game Fight UK Champion 🥇
• February: Double Gold 🥇🥇 in both Gi 🥋 and No Gi 🤼‍♂️ at the Empire Grappling: North East (Middlesbrough) Open
• March: Double Gold 🥇🥇 in both Gi 🥋 and No Gi 🤼‍♂️ at the Empire Grappling: Northern (Manchester) Open
• May:
  • Gold 🥇 at the Empire Grappling: Yorkshire (Barnsley) Open
  • British Title 🥇🏆
• June: Double Gold 🥇🥇 in both Gi 🥋 and No Gi 🤼‍♂️ at Grappling Industries (Manchester)

These victories not only showcase Ren's consistent excellence but also his versatility in mastering both Gi and No Gi categories.

The World Championship Weekend

Ren’s performance this weekend was the pinnacle of his year-long journey. Competing in Wolverhampton, he not only clinched the Elite: World Championship title but also earned a bronze medal 🥉 in the No Gi category, despite moving up to a heavier weight division. This achievement is particularly impressive given his relative inexperience in No Gi competition, further highlighting his adaptability and skill.

Celebrating Ren's Spirit

Ren’s accomplishments are a source of immense pride and inspiration. His story is one of perseverance, passion, and a relentless pursuit of excellence. As the current British Champion and now World Champion, Ren has firmly established himself as one of the best young competitors in the sport.

We are incredibly proud of Ren and can’t wait to see what the future holds for this young prodigy. His journey is a reminder that with hard work, dedication, and a fighting spirit, anything is possible.

Congratulations, Reynnahn Bradley! Your achievements this year have been nothing short of phenomenal. You have shown the world what true determination looks like, and your victories are a testament to your exceptional talent and hard work. Here’s to many more triumphs and continued success in your BJJ journey! 🥇🙌🏻
