What usually slows down a Judo tournament

When registrations, categories, brackets and mats are split across tools, organizers lose time on manual fixes.

Weight and age categories keep changing until the last minute

Competitor, club or weight category changes become time-consuming when the data lives outside the system.

Small categories need different brackets from large ones

A 3-person category and a 16-person category need different bracket settings. Discipline packages let you define rules by category size.

Multiple mats: fight order and results need to stay connected

With multiple mats, fight order, scoreboard handling and result publishing need to stay connected.

Run your Judo tournament with less manual work

From club registrations to finals, MartialMatch keeps the judo workflow in one place.

01

Start with registration and clean category structure

Open registration, collect competitor data, and prepare your category tree by weight, age group and gender. With the right discipline assigned from the start, the next steps stay predictable.

02

Set up Judo brackets without manual workarounds

When registration closes, configure the Judo discipline package and set bracket ranges for different category sizes: Best-of-Three for two competitors, round robin for small groups, and single elimination, the Brussels two-pool system or the Olympic-style repechage bracket for larger ones.

03

Run fights on mats and publish results faster

On event day, MartialMatch supports live judo scoreboard handling with ippon, waza-ari, yuko and shido, mat schedule flow, and public results in one system, so staff do not need to move data between separate tools.

Features built for running Judo tournaments

The core judo operations: registrations, categories, brackets and scoreboard handling.

Judo event registration

Registration data, competitor data, clubs and starting lists stay inside one system instead of being split across forms, spreadsheets and messages.

Weight and age categories

Prepare your judo category structure by weight class, age group and gender, then assign the right discipline to the relevant category branches.

Brussels, Olympic repechage and other judo brackets

Bracket ranges can be mapped to competitor counts: Best-of-Three, round robin, single and double elimination, the Brussels two-pool system, and the Olympic-style single repechage bracket used in international judo. Kata divisions get their own dedicated bracket type and scoreboard.

Judo scoreboard with osaekomi timer

The judo scoreboard tracks ippon, waza-ari, yuko and shido penalties, runs the osaekomi hold timer with automatic yuko, waza-ari and ippon scoring, and supports golden score.

Club-separation seeding

Seed brackets so competitors from the same club are kept apart in early rounds where possible, instead of arranging seeding manually.

Organizer support

If this is your first event in the system, the MartialMatch team can help you configure the event and category structure.

Scoreboard as part of event operations

A Judo scoreboard built around IJF scoring

In MartialMatch, the judo scoreboard tracks ippon, waza-ari, yuko and shido penalties, and its osaekomi timer awards points automatically as a hold-down reaches yuko, waza-ari and ippon duration, so referees do not have to track the clock and the score separately.
