Divisions

Athletes are separated by age, rank, and weight. Rough weight classes are assigned using approved US Judo weight classes (below), but groups can be mixed/matched to ensure matches. If we can’t find reasonable matches by combining adjacent age, rank, or weight classes, we will contact the club coach to find the best placement. Boys and girls 10 years and under may be combined to make matches.

Divisions will be administered by a modified round robin protocol. Divisions with 5 or less contestants will be true round robin (everybody has a match with everybody in the division). Divisions of 6 or more, each contestant will have 4 matches. Efforts will be made so contestants from the same club don’t have to compete with each other.
