Tournament Rules & Points:
The tournament will follow the traditional BJJ point system and rule set, however the following are 3 major changes:

1. All Adult (18-29) matches are 6 minutes.
2. No Advantages are recorded. If neither competitor has scored or the score is tied, the referee will decide the winner based on the following criteria in this order of priority: whom they believe was closest to attaining submissions; achieved more dominant positions; showed more aggression in pressing the action; generally had more dominant control; penalties.
3. In the instance when both competitors pull guard simultaneously, the competitor who comes to the top first and holds the position for a three count will receive two points.
