Yesterday I held my first inter club at Southend BJJ.
Earlier in the year a few kids showed interest in competing.
Putting them in to a competition with no experience isn’t always great for the parents wallet.
The kids can step on the mat and the match could be over within a minute.
We had kids from 4 different gyms come along and each child had one, and some had two matches of 3 minutes each. If there was a submission or lack of action, they would get stood up and re set to go again.
I’m on a quest to build my kids team and if they choose to compete in the bigger competitions, I’ll be there to support them along the way.
The kids had so much fun yesterday and can’t wait to do this again!
