although I have been in Jiu jitsu for a bit of a long time, this will be my first time in a competition. I'm feelin ghood, ready to test my skills on guys I don't train with on the regular. I'm also nervous as fuck. Is that normal... nervous and ready at the same time? Whut can I do to ease this rush til crunch time? Will this eager rush turn into pretty little butterflies in my stomach in the tournament?
In a nut shell, whut can I do if I'm nervous before a match?

its your first competition so nervous is normal. just try your best and have fun at the same time. that's basically it. don't be in it to win it, just have fun and try to take something from it. think of it as a learning block. that should help with all before-match nervousness.

Adrenaline is good as long as it's not paralyzing. If you know you've prepared well there's no need to worry "the more you sweat, the less you bleed!"

Try meditation to calm your mind...
