BJJ is still a young and growing sport with a bright future and one thing is certain, tournaments, scrimmages, and super fight style events are bringing awareness to this sport in a big way. Jiu Jitsu events are a great place to hangout and enjoy watching the sport that we love.
One way we can create a positive jiu jtsu competition is by hosting BJJ Scrimmages which were created to mitigate bad tournament experiences and help beginners (or non-competitive daily practitioners) the opportunity to test themselves on the mats. Nova has hosted a number of these scrimmages and the BJJ community loves them.
