About Us
SFL
is a grappling organization which consists of three leagues in Montreal, Gatineau and Quebec, Canada. Some SFL events have been held in Belgium, Europe. Martial artists such as judo, Japanese ju-jitsu, wrestling, sombo, Brazilian jiu-jitsu and MMA practitioners can face each other regularly. The SFL has a simple set of rules so that it won't favor a martial art in particular. Like its name indicates, the goal is to apply a technique (e.g. joint locks, chokes) in order to submit his or her opponent. The winner is the one with the most submissions at the end of a 6 minute round on a matted surface. Like all martial arts, all fights are being held in a atmosphere of highest respect.12 good reasons to fight in the SFL

Advantage point for submission attempt
A point is rewarded when a competitor put is opponent in danger with a submission attempt. These advantage points are only used when there’s no winner by submission after regulation time. If there’s no winner by submission AND by advantage, the referee declares a winner by decision or a draw.Why you can win the SFL championship with only 4 fights
Only the best 4 results of each fighter are taken into account. So every fighter can accumulate a maximum of 40 points. That’s why you can win the championship with only4 bouts and there are newcomers at each event.
