where do you live?
In denver we have grappling tournaments and kickboxing shows. IF you are in a major city there is a high probabality that you will be able to compete in both sport jiujitsu, and kickboxing (although this may be under modified rules). you cna also check outt he NAGA tounaments (North American Grappling Association) they have teen divisions, but you may have to travel there is a tournament in Las Vegas in November for NAGA. before you sign on witht his school make sure the instructor, is qualified with a back round that you can verify, there are many people out there claiming to be BJJ experts but they really know jack ****. ANyways, find out from a locl place about tournaments, most karate associations have grappling divisions, just make sure the school has connections to train you properly for competition and that they can find out about competitions.
