Time permitting, we will attempt to ensure that competitors get as many
matches as possible. At minimum,
Modified Double Elimination will be used. Rules:
I.J.F. Rules will apply, except: (1)
The rest period between matches will be 5 minutes, not 10. (2)
The use of blue judo-gis (by the first called competitor only) is
encouraged, not required. (3)
Kansetsu waza are not permitted in any Novice Division.
Shime waza and kansetsu waza are not permitted in Junior (under 12 years
old) Divisions. Attempts will be penalized. (4)
Drop seoi-nage is prohibited in Junior and Juvenile Divisions. (5) In
Junior Divisions the so-called “headlock” throw is strictly prohibited. If this throw is attempted, matte will be called and the
offending competitor warned. A second attempt, or if the other competitor is--in
the sole opinion of the referee team on the mat--injured, will result in a
direct hansouku-make (for an action which may endanger or injure the opponent).
As it is a prohibited technique, no score will result from the use of the
“headlock throw.” (6) If a
judoka is blind, the IBSA modifications to IJF rules shall apply to all of
his/her matches. Divisions:
The Tournament Director reserves the right to modify the weight divisions
and number of divisions. In
exercising this discretion, the Tournament Director will attempt to accommodate
novice (white and yellow belt) and girls divisions. Inquiries/Additional

This
tournament is dedicated to the memory of Yves Loran, Sandan, from the Victoria
Judo Club. Yves passed away June 5,
2001 after a short illness. Yves started his judo career in his native France at
the age of 19 after a car accident left him temporarily paralysed for two years.
He trained under Sensei Norris, a two-time European champion, for over
ten years. Yves received his Shodan in 1980. He moved to Victoria and joined the Victoria Judo Club in
1981. For
the next twenty years Yves devoted his time to the juniors of the club, and
earned his promotions to Nidan in 1986 and Sandan in 1998.
To him, children were the future of judo. Yves’
older son, Christopher, is a Sankyu. His
younger son, Elliot-- who has been on the B.C. team for the last two years--is a
Nikyu. Yves’ family and club have set up a juniors’ travel fund at the
Victoria Judo Club in his memory. DIVISION LIST: YVES LORAN MEMORIAL TOURNAMENT 2003 All Divisions will be subdivided into light,
