RA JUDO CLUB BOWING-IN PROCEDURE

The first thing you do and the last thing you do every workout, is to bow to Jigoro Kano, the founder of Judo. i.e., the order of bowing in is: - Jigoro Kano - instructors The order of bowing out is the reverse: - instructors - Jigoro Kano SEIZA Sit (kneeling position) SHOMEN NI ... MOKUSO Face front and meditate. Clear your mind of all thoughts. FRONT TO MEDITATE MOKUSO O YAME Stop meditating MEDITATION STOP SHOMEN NI ... REI Bow to the front (Jigoro Kano’s picture) FRONT TO BOW

SENSEI NI ... REI Bow to the teacher(s) TEACHER TO BOW

BOWING-OUT PROCEDURE SEIZA Sit (kneeling position) SENSEI NI ... REI Bow to the teacher(s) TEACHER TO BOW

SHOME NI ... MOKUSO Face front and meditate FRONT TO MEDITATE MOKUSO O YAME Stop meditating MEDITATION STOP SHOME NI ... REI Bow to the front (i.e., bow to Jigoro Kano) FRONT TO BOW

COUNTING IN JAPANESE There are many different counting systems in Japanese, depending on what you are counting. For example, there is one counting system for long skinny things (like people), another for flat things, etc. For warm-ups in Judo, we use

ICHI one NI two SAN three SHI four GO five

ROKU six SHICHI seven HACHI eight KU nine JU ten

JUDO ETIQUETTE

1. Bare feet only are allowed in the Judo room. While the student is in the RA building,

he/she will wear foot gear such as sandals, slippers or tongs. Socks are not allowed between the locker room and the Judo room.

2. Students must be punctual at all scheduled meetings. 3. Students must wear the traditional Judo-gi, properly tied, with a belt indicating

his/her rank at all practice sessions. 4. Students must keep their Judo-gi clean and in good repair. 5. Students must keep their bodies clean, and finger and toe nails trimmed. 6. Students must not wear jewelry or sharp objects when exercising. 7. Students must not chew gum or have food of any kind in their mouths while in the

Dojo. 8. All Judoka will bow when coming onto and leaving the mat. 9. Judoka will bow to each other at the beginning and the end of each practice.

Bowing is an expression of gratitude and respect. In effect, you are thanking your opponent for giving you the opportunity to improve your technique. Bowing to one’s partner has no religious significance.

10. Students must obey their instructors and respect the discipline of their seniors and

instructors. 11. Students must sit properly while on the mat. 12. Do not criticize other Judoka, other Judo clubs, or other Martial Arts. 13. Students must always be serious, sincerely entering into the spirit of the art,

especially during randori and contests. The spirit of fair play, obedience to the referee’s judgement, and giving as much importance to the attitude of the match or practice as to the results, are of greatest importance.

14. Higher belts, when working with lower belts, must only use techniques appropriate

to the lower belt’s ability. 15. Students will refrain from taking illegal drugs. 16. STUDENTS MUST NOT MISUSE THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE ARTS.

5

JUDO TOURNAMENT SCORING July 2013

START OF A MATCH When a match is announced, the first person called is “blue”, and the 2nd person “white”. Bow before entering onto the mat. Stand behind your line on the mat, feet together, and do a standing bow, 30degrees. Step forward, left foot first, feet apart, and wait for the referee to say HAJIME (begin). SCORING

IPPON (one point) • A throw , landing largely on the back with speed, force, and control • 20 seconds in a hold (15 seconds if contestant has a WAZA-ARI on the scoreboard) • An armlock (on the elbow) or choke until UKE submits WAZA-ARI (half point) • Throw is lacking in one of the four criteria (largely on the back, speed, force, and control) • Contestant is held down for 15 seconds or more, but less than 20 seconds • Two WAZA-ARI’s add up to an IPPON YUKO • Throw is mostly on the side or lacking in 2 of the 4 criteria (largely on the back, speed, force, & control) • Contestant is held down for 10 seconds or more but less than 15 seconds • YUKO’s do not add up to a WAZA-ARI PENALTIES There are two types of penalties: SHIDO (slight infringement), and HANSOKU-MAKE (grave infringement = disqualification). Four SHIDOs equals a HANSOKU-MAKE. SHIDOs DO NOT transfer over as a score for the opponent. At the end of the fight, if the score is equal, the one with less SHIDOs wins. SCOREBOARD The scoreboard makes the fight easier to follow for contestants, referees and spectators. For example:

WHITE BLUE

1 0 0 2 WAZA-ARI YUKO PENALTY WAZA-ARI YUKO PENALTY

In this case, if there is no IPPON at the end of the match, White wins (“10” is more than “02”). IMPORTANT TERMINOLOGY HAJIME Begin MATTE Stop SORE MADE That is all (match is over) OSAEKOMI Hold-down TOKETA Hold-down broken HANSOKU-MAKE Disqualification WAZA-ARI AWASETE IPPON Two half points make up a full point

IPPON WAZA-ARI YUKO OSAEKOMI TOKETA Non-combativity (Hold-down) (Hold-down broken)

JUDO SAFETY July 2010

THROWING 1. Don’t throw close to the wall. 2. Make sure the way is clear before you throw. 3. Support your partner when you throw. 4. Do NOT attempt throws that you have not been taught in class. Examples would be leg takedowns and

sacrifice throws. CHOKES & ARMLOCKS

5. Apply armlocks slowly. 6. If you feel that the armlock or choke is effective, tap right away. 7. Tap anywhere twice quickly with your hands or feet or say "MAITTA" (I give up) to indicate submission. 8. When UKE taps, release the technique IMMEDIATELY.

WORKING WITH LOWER BELTS

9. Students should not apply advanced techniques on lower belts, i.e., no chokes or armlocks on beginners or juniors.

10. No sacrifice throws on white/yellow belts. 11. Only use MAKIKOMI (winding) throws on higher belts. 12. When working with someone of lower skill, do not abuse that person. You should fight at a level just above

theirs. This way you will continually challenge them while still permitting them to learn. 13. Don’t do standing randori with someone until he/she knows their breakfalls perfectly. (white belts)

BREAKFALLS 14. Know your breakfalls and do them properly. 15. Do NOT let the back of your head strike the mat when you fall. Keep your chin on your chest.

GENERAL

16. If you are bleeding, stop and put a band-aid on it. Clean up any drops of blood on the floor. 17. Apply the techniques correctly. 18. Do not be afraid to be thrown. Many injuries occur when TORI insists on throwing and UKE refuses to be

thrown. 19. If you’ve been off for awhile, stick to easy techniques. 20. Keep your toenails and fingernails trimmed. 21. Sit properly when on the side of the mat, either in SEIZA (kneeling) position, or sitting with your legs

crossed. 22. If you come to practice with an injury, let the instructors know before practice. Also, let your training partners

know if it will limit the techniques that you can perform or receive.

AGE RESTRICTIONS IN COMPETITION • U18 (under age 18):

o Armlocks and chokes are allowed • U15 (under age 15):

o No armlocks or chokes • U13 (under age 13):
