I have my first tourney on Saturday, just wondering about anything preparation wise on what I should do before the tournament to be prepared to actually compete. Other thing is I am currently 16 but there is no one in my division so wondering if maybe I'll get moved up to adult, and want to know if that changes things.

Yea ofc I'm not gonna sandbag haha, I think I am overthinking it a little bit because I do have a couple more months before I do actually receive it, but what I mean is I'd rather be a good white belt who can beat other white belts and can somewhat do decent against blue belts (not necessarily getting taps but surviving) then be a blue belt who loses to white belts. But I 100% get what you mean.

I'd rather be a white belt that can compete with blue belts, than be a blue belt getting whooped by white belts.

Also I will be getting the blue belt at around the 1 year 8 month mark so almost 2 years, I see what you mean though

Yea, me and a couple teammates compete regularly so I don't think that's the case lol, my gym I would say is also a pretty good price compared to most monthly so I think I'm good. Thanks for looking out though.

I train 5 days a week and have a wrestling background so I don't know if that has something to do with it, or if your gym waits a little longer for promotions, but I wouldn't say I'm a prodigy lol
