Abu Dhabi World Pro Jiu Jitsu Trials for North and Central America
Dhabi World Pro Jiu Jitsu Trials for North and Central America. The Trials are in Melbourne, FL February 28, 2009.
The forums and news seem to lead to this being real. However, we couldn't find any information onthe official ADCC website. So this may not be an ADCC sanctioned event, some commentary has stated it's only held in Abu Dhabi.
UPDATED: ADCC confirmed this event is not ADCC or related to the ADCC. Their response was quite brief:
"No, it's not ADCC
event! Thank you."
From all the information we see it's a NAFA event using Abu Dhabi in the name and as a location for the finale. Still a legitamate event.

Because of booking conflicts, organizers of the 2009
ADCC North American Trials announced that the trials are officially
postponed until May 2009.
Originally the trials were scheduled for January 2009.
There will still be 2 USA trials in 2009, one on the West Coast in the LA area and the second one on the East Coast. Winners of each trial automatically qualify for the main event later in 2009.
Note: There will be only one women's trials conducted simultaneously with the men's West Coast trials.
