JUDO INSTRUCTION
Introduction
1. The RE Games 2017 Judo competition will take place in the Tidworth Leisure Centre over
the period of Tue 6 – Thu 8 Jun 17. Introductory training and weigh in for the
competition will start at 1900hrs on Tue 6 Jun 17 and will last for one hour for all
players. Novice players will then carry out specific Judo training under direction of
qualified Army Judo coaches throughout the day on Wed 7 Jun 17. The event proper
will commence at 0830hrs Thu 8 Jun 17 and will be finished by 1430hrs.
Scoring Competition
2.
The scoring competition will be for novice teams only and will be knockout or league
based depending on the number of entries, before progressing in to a final match to determine the
champion team for 2017. The scoring competition is aimed at players relatively or brand new to
Judo i.e. graded yellow belt or below. Note that a change to the ruling will allow players to
compete if they have competed at the Army Judo Championships so long as still yellow belt or
below. There will be a Judo coaching period immediately prior to the event, when new players will
receive first class instruction and tuition from qualified UKCC Army and RE Judo black belt judo
coaches. Fights will be against players of a similar weight.
Teams
3.
As Judo is being included as a sport at the RE Games, this event will be open to both Major
and Minor Military units only. Each unit is to enter one team only which will consist of three male
players (1 x Over 90kgs player, 1 x 73kgs to 90kgs player and 1 x Under 73kgs player), and one
female player (of any weight). Should units have additional players who wish to give the sport a try
they can be put forward as reserves and will receive training on day one and be given the
opportunity to fight as individuals should they wish in a non-scoring event on competition day. .
4.
Judo is a contact sport therefore players nominated should be of a robust nature both
physically and mentally. Players who are strong, fit and flexible tend to be the most successful. To
assist units in their selection of suitable players, think of the heavyweight of having attributes
matching the build of a front or second row forward in rugby. The middleweight should be of
similar build to a back row forward or centre, with lightweights of equivalent build and stature to a
scrum half, or fast winger.
5.
Team captains are to submit a team sheet (found at page 5) at 1730hrs Tue 6 Jun 17 to the
event coordinator, WO2 Chesney, during the team captains brief at the Tidworth Leisure Centre.

13.
The teams of three males will compete against their opposite number individually. 3 points
will be scored for a win by Ippon (knockout throw, pin or submission), 2 points for a win by a lesser
score or disqualification of an opponent and 1 point awarded for fighting. Scores for the four fights
will be totalled and the team with the highest score will progress to the next round. In the event of
