For a freshman with no case comp experience, would it be wise for me to participate in other non-ib or business related case comps for a start?

Recently, my university has sent out invities for a case comp that revolves around improving resource efficiency in the healthcare sector. Given that currently there are no case comps centered around IB taking place, would it make sense for me to just join and try it out for the experience? Would it be helpful when I go for the more relevant and significant case competitions in the future? It has a 1-2 months commitment period and I’m quite confident I’ll be able to juggle it along with uni.
