Organized by Believe Jiu-Jitsu

Event Description
Believe Jiu-Jitsu is billed as the Midwest's first and only dedicated youth BJJ tournament, built specifically around kids and teens rather than treating them as an afterthought on an adult-focused card. The Chicago Fall event runs Believe's signature double-elimination format across gi and no-gi divisions for lower belts -- white, grey, yellow, orange, and green -- plus a teen blue belt bracket. The tournament takes place October 24, 2026, in Oak Lawn, IL, just southwest of Chicago. It's built for young competitors from beginner through advancing belts looking for solid competition experience in a kid-focused environment. Registration runs through Believe Jiu-Jitsu's Smoothcomp page, linked on Let's Roll.
