The Judo Alberta Grading Committee is proposing changes to the Technical Stream & Competitive Stream Grading scheduled for February 12. The change will better protect our judoka by having greater physical distancing and safety measures
Dividing the Technical Stream grading into two regions
For Shodan candidates, in lieu of a written test, a Kahoot session will be held on Friday February 11 at 9 pm (no longer than 30 minutes) to test your knowledge. The instructions will be emailed separately to all Shodan candidates in advance.
Separate Competitive Stream grading
Location: Hiro’s Dojo, 1919 27 Avenue NE, Calgary
(based on competitive stream candidates, a virtual session would be considered
from Edmonton)
Date: Sunday, February 13, 2022
Time:
9:00 am Clinic begins
Competitive stream candidates will not do a traditional
formal Dan grading examination. Instead, there are two components
to your grading. First, there will be a kata clinic (as stipulated in the
National Grading Syllabus). Based on current applications, it will be a Nage no
Kata clinic on February 13.
Second, there will be a Tachi-waza / Ne-waza session where you will demonstrate your favourite Nage / Katame / Shime / Kansetsu technique. Then everyone will have time to practice.,

Restrictions Amendment
Good
afternoon, Judo Alberta Members,
Please
be advised that the Judo Alberta executive has made an amendment to the motion
that was approved in September 2021 regarding the decision to apply
restrictions to specific Judo Alberta sanctioned events until the Alberta State
of Public Health Emergency is declared over.
The formerly approved motion by the JA executive:To postpone
all Judo Alberta tournament events until further notice. All
regional/provincial training camps, NCCP clinics, and gradings will be
permitted without any spectators. Only participants over the age of 12
with proof of vaccination are permitted to attend. Single vaccinations
will be accepted until October 24th. Starting October 25th double
vaccinations will be required as per Government of Alberta regulation.”
The newly approved amendment by the JA executive: As of Nov
29,2021, Judo Alberta will follow the AHS Restriction Exemption Program (REP)
for all future events, including tournaments, clinics, training camps, and all
other sanctioned events. For events being held in public or private facilities,
Judo Alberta will follow the facilities rules as long as those rules
follow the AHS protocols.

Tournament Point Certification forms (signed by the Tournament Director) will no longer be used for verifying tournament wins. However, official draw sheets from the tournament or certification by the head sensei must be emailed to the Provincial Grading Committee at gyokamura@gmail.com once the application has been made.
