P.S.: Please read the tournament information carefully, they change according to the

Weigh-in information
Some tournaments require competitors (especially kids) to be weighted-in up to 2
hours prior the first match time, so arrive early to avoid rush and stress. Also, if you
still need to lose few last grams you have time to do it so.
You need to weight in wearing you Gi uniform (pants, jacket, and belt) or No-Gi
uniform (shorts with no pockets and rash guard).
Please ensure you register yourself in a weight you are comfortable making. Try to
lose or gain a lot of weight in a short period can be a bad idea. It is not a healthy
option and can affect your performance.
Competitors over their registered weight will risk disqualification. It means no
tournament for you and no refund of your registration fee.
Preparation for tournaments
Competitions are fun, they provide a chance to make friends with like minded people
and add great experience to your Jiu Jitsu as well for personal development,
especially for children.
It is important to plan ahead if you like to participate in a tournament. Deciding in
advance which tournaments you would like to participate will give you more time to
train, deal with weight and registration fees are cheaper during early bird. It is a win-
win situation.
If you decide to test your skills and compete at a tournament, the preparation
leading to the tournament is the most important part. It is when you are going to
work hard, improve your fitness and skills and get mentally prepared. It is essential
to commit to a routine of training and healthy habits. Success comes with hard work
and sacrifices. Train hard, fight easy!
On the day

Jiu Jitsu tournaments often run for a whole day. Plan to arrive at the venue at least
2.5 hours prior your first match to go through weigh-in, check-in and warm-up
smoothly. Bringing water and snacks is a good idea. Do not forget your uniform and
BJJ accessories such as mouth guard, tape, etc.
Coaches will be around to help and assist you throughout the day. However, the
number of students is greater than the number of coaches. Also, often the coaches
are competing which limits they ability to be around all the time. Please be as
prepared and self-sufficient as you can but feel free to ask for assistance at any time.
Everyone wants to win the tournament and it can be nerve-racking to participate. Do
not worry, getting nervous is totally normal. We appreciate your effort to be
competing regardless the result, just focus on what is under your control, do your
best and have fun!
Information for parents
Your child is making a brave decision to participate in a tournament. Be as supportive
as you can. Focus on what he or she is doing well and avoid putting lots of pressure
on them. Encourage your kids to be humble, caring, friendly and respectful toward
their opponent. That is what real champions do!
Regardless the result, encourage them never to give on their dreams and be proud of
them. Often a loss teaches more valuable lessons than a win.
Enjoy the journey!
