Round One Set the Standard
Eight teams took the Main Stage at Legacy Combat Sports Stadium, Kincumber NSW on 11 April 2026. Broadcast-grade production, professional officials, 100 percent submission finishes, and a format built for team strategy. Grappling Education took the Founding Season title convincingly.

Inside an ASL Night
What ASL 1 and ASL 2 delivered - and ASL 3 takes further.
Team Walkouts and Live Commentary
The atmosphere set the standard. Team entrances, professional MC, walkout music, and a crowd that brings the energy from the first match. Every ASL night builds on the last.
Submission-Only Matches
No points. Submission is king - a legal submission ends the bout on the spot. ASL 1 proved the format works - every single match ended by submission.
Broadcast-Grade Production
Multi-camera coverage. Ring lighting. Highlight replays. Live commentary. ASL 1 and ASL 2 proved this is a Main Stage production, not a weekend bracket. ASL 3 raises the bar again.
