DREAM

Dream Jiu Jitsu follows the standards of bigger organizations with a few exceptions and changes of our own. While we want our competitors to play by the same rules as everyone else, ultimately competition should be designed for you to become a better grappler. We believe our rules and format reflect that idea. All questions should be sent by email.
All Baddest Blue tournaments are submission only with no time limit.
DREAM BJJ: THE BADDEST BLUE
Submission Only
Submission only, no points or advantages.
Time Limit
There is no time limit. Matches will end once a submission is achieved.
Overtime
If a submission is not achieved during the time limit, competitors will enter overtime.
-
Overtime rounds will begin in the armbar position (one arm threaded through opponent's arm for the armbar, the other hand on the mat).
-
A coin will be flipped to decide which competitor chooses to be in the offensive or defensive position first.
-
Competitors will have a chance to either attack or escape.
-
Each competitor will have a chance at both offense and defense, meaning there are 2 overtime rounds total.
Win criteria for overtime rounds:
-
If one competitor submits his/her opponent and the other does not, the competitor who earned the submission is declared the winner.
-
If both submit their opponents, the competitor who earned the fastest submission is declared the winner.
-
If both escape, the competitor with the fastest escape time is declared the winner.
-
ONLY if there is an exact tie, the overtime round will begin again.
