“Thanks Butch Hiles and WVGO. You are doing a outstanding job by sharing you art of BJJ. This process is turning out many individuals with the tools to better equip them into becoming better citizens an also your community outreach with various events is helping to spread the love. Honored to know you.”

My daughter competed in her second tournament at the WV Grappling Open on 3/23/13. She had a great time. She had a couple of tough matches that helped her understand just how tough she really is. She is a student of Jeb Tonkin, at Ground Zero in Bridgeport. I wanted to say thank you for the opportunity for her to find out something about herself.

Fantastic tournament.  My boy had a great time, and told me so several times before we got home.  My first tournament, and I commend you on the totally relaxed environment that you cultivated.  Will definitely be returning.  

Hey, Butch. Great tournament today. I love the location…the loft-style setting, the crowd around, the good music…very real, very interactive.

“Had a great time at the tournament, thanks a million for the opportunity”

Thank you WVGO for Another great tournament!

“We would like to thank Butch Hiles & the WVGO for having a great event and look forward to many more to come!!”

“Had a good time reffing the tourney today, as always. Great competition all day long.”

We had a great time, and can’t wait for the next one!
