Competition Training
Where World Champions Are Made
The High Rollers competition team is one of the most decorated in Australian jiu jitsu history. Our athletes have claimed 10+ World Championships, multiple European, Pan Pacific, and National titles. When you train with us, you train alongside world champions.
A System That Produces Champions
Over 10 world champions have been produced through the High Rollers system — and there are more on the way. This isn't an accident. It's the result of a deliberate methodology: world-class instruction, strategic competition preparation, and a team culture that pushes every athlete to their ceiling.
Led by Head Coach Tadeu Lobato (AFBJJ #1 No-Gi 2023) and featuring 10× World Champion Oliver Silvestro, our competition team has access to coaching that most academies in the world can only dream of.
We compete at every level — from local AFBJJ events to Australian Nationals, Pan Pacifics, AJP Tours, European Championships, and IBJJF World Championships. Our coaches travel interstate and internationally to corner at competitions because we believe you should never be alone on the competition mat.
