Details: This event provides more mat time than a standard competition, in a friendly inter-club environment. The Lake

Macquarie Games Teams Event * involves matching similar level players into teams who undergo supervised

competitive randori. It is an ideal stepping stone for judoka who are graded and members of the JFA, but not

qualified for competition (i.e. <9yrs this year: up to White-yellow blacktip. 9yrs+ this year: up to Yellow-orange

black tip). ALL GRADES OF PLAYERS can do both the teams and competition, but novices are only

matched with novice players. Green belts 13yrs+ are encouraged to referee. Where there are matches, we

offer separate senior Orange-Green and Blue-Brown belt divisions. The Demo Cup is open to demonstrations

such as Ukemi, Kata & Self Defense. Please let us know ASAP if you are willing to volunteer to make this event a rewarding experience for all.

  Volunteers appointed prior to the day receive free spectator entry and refreshments  
