COMPETITOR GUIDE
THE OFFICIAL BJJ TOUR IS INTRODUCING NEW RULES FOR 2024

2.) White belt juvenile, adult and master will have a consolation match in case you do not make your weight.
3.) All Kid's divisions with a bracket of three of more kids, where for any reason that bracket ends up with only two kids,
the two kids will be fighting each other for the best of three matches.

It is the parents responsibility to bring valid ID for their child competitors.
