Error manifestations occur in junior and senior judo bouts full names

Competitive judo bouts have already been observed and analysed by many authors [1-20], however, the objectives of these observations were different. Some authors were interested in the psychology, physiology and biochemistry of effort aspects [8,10,16], while others studied the differences in bout strategy vs. gender [20] or the differences in the techniques used, when usually taking into account the differences between competitors who are of different age and different sports level [1-7,11-12,21-24] or changes in competitive level over the years of a competitive career [25]. Many different observation and recording techniques were used in bouts from manual recording of all events using specially designed symbols [1], through observation sheets, to the data digitization and computer analysis [14,26]. In judo scoring can be achieved by: throwing, pinning, choking, applying an arm lock and penalties [12]. Competitors can make errors in any of the above actions. Therefore, each of these sequences should be trained to be perfectly controlled and every individual motor action should be memorised as an unconditioned response. A judo competitor, who wants to win a bout, must demonstrate the highest effectiveness in attack, defense and counterattack. The ability to make use of the errors made by an opponent and the ability to commit as few own errors as possible is the key to success in a judo bout. In judo, information on the current course of the competition and, in particular, the errors made during the fight by a competitor may be of key importance in changing the course of a bout. Bearing in mind the characteristics of this sports discipline, our study aimed to analyse the power of different errors and their manifestations. The aim of this study is also to compare manifestations of errors made by seniors and juniors and to correlate them with the way of conducting a judo bout.
