Polaris Pro Invitational 3 tentatively scheduled for April

Bloody Elbow has learned that Polaris Pro, Europe's premier grappling organisation, will be returning with its 3rd event in April 2016.

Over the last year, Polaris Pro have captured the hearts and minds of grappling fans with a series of fan friendly shows. In January, Polaris put on their inaugural show, which featured an epic match between Dean Lister and Keenan Cornelius, as well as a leglock battle between Marcin Held and Garry Tonon. Following the success of their first show, Polaris returned in September to give Tonon a main event berth against Imanari in another successful show, but following that night in Cardiff, there has been no news of a 3rd event until now.

Sources close to Polaris Pro have informed BloodyElbow.com that Polaris will be returning in April 2016, but with a few minor changes. Firstly, Polaris will be leaving its regular stomping ground of Cardiff's St. David's Hall and secondly, the promotion will be making its return to pay-per-view, following an amicable split with FloGrappling.

Details of the main event of Polaris Pro 3 are expected to be released in coming weeks and if the last 2 shows are anything to go by, the card should feature a wealth of grappling's most familiar names. Keep your eyes glued to BloodyElbow.com for the latest Polaris 3 news.
