In-house interclub competitions are one of the best ways to accelerate your progress in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. They provide a safe, supportive environment to experience the pressure and intensity of competition without the added stress of travelling to a large tournament. You'll test your techniques against training partners you've never rolled with, build confidence under pressure, and identify areas of your game that need improvement. Whether you're preparing for your first competition or simply looking to challenge yourself, interclubs help develop composure, resilience, and real match experience. Most importantly, they strengthen the team spirit within the gym, creating an atmosphere where everyone pushes each other to improve while celebrating each other's progress.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
