Queensland's Gold Coast runs its own calendar of BJJ tournaments. Most events are listed simply as Gold Coast, with a few pinned to Oxenford and Carrara.
Grappling Industries Gold Coast is the most regular event, and the Gold Coast Championship and the CompNet Queensland State Championship, which runs Gi and No-Gi, have each appeared several times. The ADCC Oceania Open, run by ADCC Australia, brings ADCC rules to the coast. The Galeb Brothers BJJ Association hosts the Galeb BJJ Spring Cup, QBJJC has run its state championship here, and the South East QLD Championship and Gold Coast Open also feature.
Gi is offered at about three quarters of events and No-Gi at around six in ten, so most comps give you both. More than half include an absolute, which is a good chance to test yourself against bigger opponents, and about a quarter have kids divisions. March and October are the busiest months, with November and June next.
