General Information
Our students participate in a variety of tournaments, all designed to develop character, gauge progress and improve performance. Most of the tournaments we attend are in Southern California and Baja California. More extensive travel is required for our national and state championships however. Below are listed the various types of tournaments we attend.
Informal or Non-Sanctioned Tournaments: these tournaments don't require membership in any of the national organizations, which are USA Judo, U.S. Judo Association and U.S. Judo Federation. Insurance coverage offered by the national organizations is not in effect at these tournaments.
Sanctioned Tournaments: these tournaments are sanctioned by one of the national organizations and require that participants be a member of one of the national organizations. Their insurance coverage is in effect.
Judo America Tournaments: these are our in-house tournaments, which are non-sanctioned. We attempt to host at least two tournaments per year.
Friday Night at the Fights: held from time to time during our regularly scheduled Friday classes to offer a tournament-like environment.
