Good luck man...

Dont go into a tournament thinking you're not going to take first....I know mentally, it is hard...but seriously, think win...

My first tournament I went in being very nervous..Competing in front of hundreds/thousands of people including my family, close friends, training partners, etc... I came out with a silver medal...Mentally, for my next one, I am FULLY prepared...

It is A LOT of waiting around...9 am starting time turns into 11 am starting time....Depending on how big each division is, they can take over an hr each...

Also, for only 2 months of training, I dont know how wise it would be to go up against blue, purple, and brown belts...I know you're going in for experience, but that is too much imo....

Go into your beginner and novice white belt divisions..and if you aren't drained and feel you can compete in more, go into an intermediate division for white belts....

Most of all, have fun!! It is a GREAT experience...
