USJJF COMPETITION REFEREE TRAINING & CERTIFICATION
In 1998, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) adopted the World Games as the "Third Leg" of the Olympics! Ju-Jitsu Competition was first included in the 1997 World Games and again Jiu-Jitsu was included as a "World Class Sport" Jiu-Jitsu Competition in the World Games in 2001 in Atika, Japan.
