FRONTIER LIONS CUP

The "Frontier Lions Cup" (f.k.a. "New Frontiers Cup") is an annual tournament held by Frontier Grappling Arts. The event, which is normally held later in the calender year, places eight grapplers in a one night, three round tournament to determine the winner. The rules are as follows:

- 8 grapplers qualify for the tournament.
- The tournament is held over the course of one night.
- The first or opening round has a 15 minute time limit.
- The semifinals has a 30 minute time limit.
- The finals has a 60 minute time limit.

The winner of the tournament will not only receive the Frontier Lions Cup trophy, but also a guaranteed FGA Heavyweight Championship match against the champion at the time.

In 2013, the "New Frontiers Cup" was changed to the "Frontier Lions Cup." The rules were essentially the same:

- 16 grapplers are selected.
- 8 grapplers qualify for the tournament.
- The tournament is held over the course of one night.
- The first or opening round has a 15 minute time limit.
- The semifinals has a 30 minute time limit.
- The finals has a 60 minute time limit.
