I had a channel that just had videos I recorded at bjj competitions. Two weeks ago I put up 22 videos of matches of people from my school and everything was fine. Yesterday I was at the UAEJJF comp in NY and I had 15 videos that I uploaded this morning. I then got an automated email stating my videos violated community guideline restrictions and then the channel was deleted. I am attempting to appeal this decision.

Has something similar happened to anyone? It wasn't spam, trying to sell anything, linking to another site or any of the such. It was just videos so people that weren't there could see how those that competed did. I don't understand it.
 
I know IBJJF has done this. They prohibit recording and reserve the rights to display the matches.
 
Wouldn't that get me a copyright violation if that was the issues? I thought maybe it was the UAEJJF wanting to take down the videos initially but it doesn't seem that way.
