Abstract

[b]Introduction. [/b]The aim of this study was assessment of the importance of techniques of throws in men junior and senior age categories.[b]Material and methods.[/b] 60 judo throwing techniques that were in accordance with judo bout rules, were in research samples. Sample of consisted of 2 variables: juniors and seniors (age categories). The selected variables are similar according to the rules of judo bout- both of them have the same weight categories and the duration of the bout. This type of research is based on expert assessment of techniques in given variables. Experts in this case present items of the test. In this research eight judo experts from 5 countries assessed the importance of 60 judo throws within the given variables giving the grades 1 (not important) to 5 (very important).[b]Results.[/b] The techniques of throws in the senior age category represent more important technical – tactical mean for achieving victory than in junior age category. These results imply that one cannot expect complete technical maturation of judoka till the senior age category. The polarisation of importance of groups of throws that is, unlike in senior age category, present in junior age category implies that seniors because of their experience and technical maturation apply more different throwing techniques in judo bout.[b]Conclusions. [/b]According these results one can conclude that for success in senior judo bout judokas must have bigger technical and tactical knowledge and higher level of motor abilities especially speed, power and timing.
