Gradings

British Judo Association Grading System
The belt system is a distinctive feature of Judo. Promotion within the Mon and Kyu grades is based on technical ability, knowledge and understanding, together with Japanese terminology and supplementary knowledge. There is no contest requirement but it is expected that the judoka follows a recommended randori and contest program as illustrated in the syllabus and has attained appropriate levels of achievement for each colour belt.
​
The Junior Judoka should be able to complete the Mon grade syllabus and attain the grade of 18th Mon by the age of 18 with regular training. While the senior judoka should be able to complete the Kyu syllabus and attain the grade of 1st Kyu in approximately five years.
For grades up to and including 18th Mon / 1st Kyu (Brown Belt) gradings are completed within the our club with either John Debono or Mike Allen completing the examination. 
​About a month before the grading we will provide each person with the information that is required for their grading. In the sessions leading up to the grading we will cover the techniques in groups, making sure that all participants understand everything for the grading.
