Rules
Modified IJF rules will govern the judo tournament. IJF interpretation of transition between ne-waza and tachi-waza will be implemented. Penalties shall be used to discourage negative judo and promote positive judo.
A white uniform, white belt, and blue belt are required by all judoka. Uniforms should cover the wrist and ankles. No t-shirts should be worn under the uniform except for females who should have a white t-shirt. Mouthguards are optional. If you are assigned to white and have only a blue uniform, you could forfeit the match. White and blue belts will be available for all participants.
Every effort will be made to provide separate divisions for white belts. Every effort will be made to provide gender divisions for Bantam divisions. Intermediate and up will have gender divisions. Every effort will be made to have weight divisions that span less than 25 pounds, but for very small and very large children this may not always be possible. All divisions will be available for coach approval before the start of the competition. Parents should consult their coach if they have questions about the rules, divisions, or judo related questions.
