Foreword by the President of Ju Jitsu International Federation

Dear friends,

As a president of the International Ju Jitsu Federation, I am very pleased to welcome You in

Greece. I wish complete success to all delegations.

I sincerely hope that these three days of competition we can make known even better our

practices, open to all and show the world the true place of Ju Jitsu.

At each international competition, the number of countries and fighters is constantly increasing, proving the vitality of Ju Jitsu through our continents. I wish good luck to all participants!

With this major event we want to honor as well our friend Eugene Domagata who passed away one year ago (11. September 2017). Let us celebrate a festival of Budo and remember the people working hard

for this.

Panagiotis Theodoropoulos

JJIF President

PLEASE NOTE according age categories:

Decisions and explanations from the JJIF Technical Congress in St. Petersburg 2010, adopted by JJIF

GA and JJIF Board:

• The age is considered according to the year of birth, not the actual birth date of the

competitor;

• The athlete can compete in one higher age category - goes for fighting, duo and ne-waza

system (juniors can compete with seniors). However, a team (duo) made up of one Aspirant

and one Junior can only compete in juniors, not also in seniors (the Aspirant, although member

of a junior team, cannot jump over two age categories and compete with the seniors)!!

• If a competitor participates in the Duo competition, he/she is allowed to be part of a mixed

couple and of a couple of his/her gender on the same tournament. The organizer will observe

that the Duo men and women are scheduled for one competition day, while the mixed duo is

scheduled for the other day.

• Cadets born in 2004, who is part of a duo team together with an Aspirant, they can compete

in Aspirants.

• Addition is that we have included SHOW system for children U-12, U-15 so that children U-12

are doing three techniques from series A and children U-15 are doing three techniques from

series A, and B. Time of action is 1 minute and 30 seconds maximum.

Organizers’ further rules regarding age:

• Cadets U15 CANNOT participate in Aspirants categories.

• Children CANNOT participate in Cadets categories. Children compete ONLY in Duo, Show and

Fighting.
