Judo Saskatchewan 2018 National Selection/funding Criteria

Judo Saskatchewan believes that High Performance Sport consists ofactivities, programs and practices focused on participating/competing in sport events where improvement and winning and excellence is the goal (vs. participation or competing purely for fun, fitness, health, social)

Judo Saskatchewan 2018 National Championship Selection / Funding Criteria The new criteria will now allow clubs to select and submit names of athletes from their clubs to attend Nationals. The athletes will be funded based on a points system with the top athletes receiving higher funding down to athletes who will have to self-fund for the competition. All athletes attending Nationals will have to follow all Judo SK policies and code of conduct regardless of level of funding or self-funding.

Questions regarding the selection/funding criteria should be addressed to Chad Litzenberger Chair of the Selection committee: Club nomination list will need to be submitted to Judo Saskatchewan by March20, 2018. This is one week after the Edmonton International. Send to Selections will be finalized one week after Provincial Championships with the funding list levels being published at that time.

Points will be earned with 1 or more wins in each division. A win is not a walk through in a competition you must actually meet your opponent on the mats to be classified as a win. Competing in 2 weight divisions the best result will be usedfor points

If a U14 athlete would like to qualify for Nationals in U16, Only U16 points will be used. Not U14 Points.
