Blue belt grading requirements
Following on from our earlier post, giving links to grading demonstrations for novice to green belt, here is a link to the blue belt requirements.
This is an unofficial interpretation, the official BJA version is available via the members’ area on the British Judo website.
Grading resources
Following the announcement of grading dates, players may find the following online resources useful. Please note that these are built around the whole grade, as required for adult kyu grades; juniors need to select the elements they need for their mon grades.
Red Belt
Yellow Belt
Orange Belt
Green Belt
The British Judo Association has also published videos of grading requirements, these are available within the members’ area of the BJA website (registration required).
Player’s diaries also include a full reminders of all techniques required at all stages.
If in doubt about any techniques – speak to Tony, Kev, Craig or Andy.
Grading Dates
The next club grading dates will be:
Tuesday 5 May
Tuesday 12 May
Thursday 14 May
(There will be no Judo on Thursday 7, due to General Election…).
Please remember that there are grade banded competitions coming up:

If you would prefer to compete at your current grade, and grade later, please speak to Tony or Kev – we will organise an extra date for those who compete.
Further gradings success
Another great week of grading success for our players!
Latest promotions are:
Jacob Boichot 1 mon
Alexander Lane 1 mon
Oliver Jones 1 mon
Maya Polak 3 mon
Samuel Boichot 4 mon
Mieszko Polak 5 mon
Marcus Tree 5 mon
Azhar Baree 6 mon
Jack Marshall 6 mon
Maddison Cox 6 mon
Conor Isherwood-Lee 7 mon
As with last week, that brings us some new belts – yellow and orange – and is a testament to how hard the players have worked and prepared for the grading. Very well done everyone.
We have one or two more players to assess, and wish them good luck next week.
During the grading process, we have identified one or two players who are under graded, due to having missed grading opportunities in the past. These players may be given the opportunity to grade again prior to the main Club grading, in order that their grades more accurately reflect their ability and attainment.

Are you ready to grade?
Gradings begin as soon as we return after the half term break – Tuesday 4 November.
When presenting yourself for your grading, please make sure you have the following:
An in date BJA licence
Your record book
Your judo diary
The correct grading fee – under 8s, £7.50; 8 and over, £10.00.
We may ask you in either English or Japanese, to demonstrate techniques, translate words etc.
Take this opportunity to refresh yourself on what you have already passed, as we can – and do! – revisit this sometimes in your grading. Don’t forget, there is a personal choice element to each grade – you select the techniques that you want to show us, which should be different to what we have asked you to demonstrate. These could be from a lower or higher grade.
Good luck!
