Fighting Chance Athletics

Fighting Chance Athletics is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that is dedicated to providing youth athletes with the uniforms, gear, and equipment necessary to participate in grappling sports like Wrestling, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and Judo.

Fighting Chance Athletics was created by Michael, Richard, Luis, and Larry; two former Marines, one Active Duty, USMC Captain, and a US Army veteran, with the desire to make a positive impact on the lives of children in their communities and beyond. The team may be small, but our goals are tremendous.

Aside from providing youth athletes with the uniforms, gear, and equipment necessary to participate in grappling sports, we are actively seeking other ways to support our communities
