Judo

     To practice or play judo you’ll need a person to supervise you and you’ll need a mat, some tape, and of course a uniform and belt. You also have five minutes to score as much points as possible. Did you know judo is derived from jiu-jitsu?

 

     Here’s how you play: there are two people, there’s no choking, and one throw to the mat is a point. Men and women compete in seven different weight categories after weight withdraw of 1984. In 1967 a judo class for Olympic practice was opened.
