Cantonal tournaments
Cantonal Championships
Suitable for beginners and lower belts, who have never been to a tournament before. You have the opportunity to fight people with similar level and experience as yours.
Cantonal competitions may be restricted to the place of club registration. If you are interested in a particular one outside of Zurich, check for participation restrictions first or talk to the board / coach.
National competitions
Ranking 500
Suitables for beginners. The minimum requirement is a yellow belt..
They usually operate on a pool system, which offers several chances to get on the mat. You get at least 2 fights.
Ranking 1000
Suitable for people with some R500 experience, as there will be more experienced judoka on the mat from all over Switzerland. They usually use a knockout system, so there is a higher chance of losing early and being eliminated. Only 1 fight is garuanteed.
The best thing is to ask our current black belts after class or our coaches which R1000 they would suggest.
Team Competition
If you are interested, Regensdorf is currently looking for male Judokas.
Just ask the board or coach if you are interested.
You can also compete as part of a team for another club since we currently don't have our own team.
It's a great experience to be part of a team and to get to know other judokas. However, fighting is not guaranteed since there are usually many judokas per weightclass.
