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

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.
“Mr. Hiles I would like to thank you for bringing grappling to the Bluefield area. I’m sure the other grapplers in the area are appreciative as well, seems everyone had a great time. I sure hope you hold more events in the area. Thanks!”
