The second South American tryout for the Abu Dhabi World Pro goes down this weekend (27th and 28th of March), in the Rio de Janeiro’s Clube de Regatas do Flamengo gymnasium. A number of the gentle art’s greatest competitors are guaranteed to be there. Name checks open on Thursday, on the event’s official website (http://www.abudhabipro.org), and any problems or questions can be resolved at the gym on Thursday, between 4pm and 8pm, or by email: checagem@fijja.org.
The brackets and timetable will also be made available on Thursday. It is worth noting that the public will only be admitted with the purchase of a ticket from Bibi Sucos in Leblon or Jardim Botânico. One-day tickets cost $ 15, and two-day tickets cost $ 20. They go on sale Thursday.
