Toma JELUŠIĆ, Coach and Secretary of the Judo Affiliation of PGZ and Judo membership Rijeka expressed his ideas additional;
We wish for everybody to essentially see judo extra then only a aggressive sport and the ability that it has. It’s a sport which could be practiced from the age of three or 4, till you might be virtually in a position to stroll. Providing the folks to do one thing new, one thing that’s helpful, reminiscent of ukemi-waza and extra, all which builds self-confidence. That is additionally one thing you lose additional time as you grow old which generally is a barrier that for instance stops you eager to do one thing. With judo we will break this limitations.
I’d say that many of the golf equipment in Europe, or at the least 70% of the children judoka are age underneath 15. So why not involving them to ask, to show, to indicate their relations and inside their circle what judo can do. To have enjoyable on the way in which while widening the judo society for extra than simply coming for coaching session. That is the final thought.
We structured a scientifically primarily based module of teaching which is one other factor that we need to develop, which has been developed and there’s a module that’s accessible now for the older individuals. We hope to develop the identical for coaches who’re prepared to embrace this sort of work. Though the timeline and the companions are mounted in the direction of the European Fee, this system is on the market to all and we might like to have extra nations concerned.
