Announcing the European Masters 2016 and the Race to Berlin

Do you want an all-expenses-paid trip to the capital city of combat juggling to take on the best combat players in the world? The Race to Berlin is on!

After the success of last year's end-of-year tournament, the European Masters, it's happening again in 2016. Only the top 10 combat players will be invited to Berlin in December, as decided by the 2016 race rankings.

We're only half way through the 2016 season, so there's still a chance for almost anyone to qualify. The biggest points haul available is coming up soon, at the Fight Night at the EJC 2016 Almere, and following that there will be over 20 more tournaments in the 2016 calendar during the second half of the year.

So far the 10 provisional invites include winners of the first two major tournaments of 2016, Luke Burrage and Rob van Heijst. Rounding out the top 10 provisional invites are a pair of British rivals (Brook Roberts and Jon Peat), Dutch rivals (Jan Poolen and Simon À Campo), two German jugglers (Markus Utke and Julius Preu, and finally two Polish jugglers (Artur Perskawiec and Jakub Szwed).

But nothing about this list is final! It's up to you to earn enough points to make it into the top 10 by the middle of November to secure your invite to the most exclusive combat tournament of the year.
