When competing in BJJ past the age of 30, you have the option to enter some tournaments in the master or senior divisions. For IBJJF tournaments, they have set up age divisions for the 30+ and over. Master is for athletes aged 30 (or turning 30 on the same year as the competition) to 34, Senior 1 is for athletes aged 35 to 39, Senior 2 is from 40 to 44 and so on every 5 years. A question we hear often is “How is a masters & Seniors competition different from regular, adult competitions (18 to 30 yrs of age)?”
Many things have to be taken into consideration when looking at answering this question. One thing for sure is that the top competitors compete in adult, just look at today’s stars like Buchecha, Rodolfo etc.. Some top BJJ athletes can technically qualify for masters (Braulio, Xande for ex) but still choose to fight the young guns in adullt.
