Predominent Techniques Used At 2012 London Olympics

Waza Used at the 2012 London Olympics

 

On the International Judo Federation website there is a interesting document that outlines techniques used at the 2012 Olympic Games in both the men's and woman's competition. With the start of the season and the competition season coming up quickly this might good for judo coaches in Canada to review and develop your technical teaching & attacking plans for your judo club/ athletes in the next year.

Note: The stats could be broken down further to weight divisions because light weights attack more and with different techniques than heavyweights but in general this is a very good document to look at and review as you develop your competitive athletes.

Please look at the IJF website: London 2012 Statistics http://www.ijf.org/
