20.500.12556/RUL-185796 Intergenerational judo synthesising evidence- and eminence-based knowledge on judo across ages In alignment with European policies regarding intergenerational sports, this study seeks to integrate existing evidence (i.e., umbrella review) and eminence (i.e., international validated educational courses for coaches) based knowledge on judo training across the lifespan. For evidence knowledge, searches of the Google Scholar, ISI WoS, PubMed, and Scopus databases (PROSPERO ID: CRD42024535420) for studies focused on training youth and older judo practitioners, with no time restriction up to April 2024, were conducted. This resulted in 16 systematic reviews meeting the inclusion criteria, with an “excellent” (n = 6), “good” (n = 7), and “fair” (n = 3) quality according to the NIH tool. With a large sample size (n = 372,655), the reviews focused on wellbeing (n = 9; bone status, injuries, and psychophysical effects) and performance (n = 7; athlete success, combat time, rapid weight loss, and the Special Judo Fitness Test), examining athletic levels (novices to Olympics), sex, and age (children to older adults). For eminence knowledge, the International Judo Federation Academy courses encompassed the “Undergraduate Certificate as Judo Instructor” (UCJI), which provides a comprehensive structure for teaching judo, including techniques, moral code, roles, responsibilities, refereeing, safety, and age specific belt examination requirements and progression, and the “Educating Judo Coaches for Older Practitioners” (EdJCO) curricula, which provide theoretical and applied modules (e.g., ageing, health, and organisation) to train older judo practitioners. The findings were summarised in a framework, highlighting the most relevant aspects of intergenerational judo programmes (i.e., aims, key characteristics, coaches’ roles, barriers, and facilitators). To develop a comprehensive educational intergenerational judo methodology, future research should examine coaches’ and practitioners’ opinions on intergenerational judo activities carried out in different national contexts. sport education martial arts combat sports intergenerational sport health-enhancing physical activity wellbeing šport izobraževanje borilne veščine borilni športi medgeneracijski šport krepitev zdravja telesna aktivnost dobro počutje true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2026-08-20 12:07:33 2026-08-20 12:07:40 2026-08-21 04:30:27 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2024 0 0 20 str. iss. 7, art. 177 Vol. 12 2024 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 796.8 2075-4663 10.3390/sports12070177 200175107 sports-12-00177.pdf sports-12-00177.pdf 1 E63AA9E9D5A078F6CADEF12A421018F3 1d9b3079766c5584ba81af8051a252675804f4545429b9cad30078b1a1673278 474ec67a-9c80-11f1-9b0d-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=244777 https://www.mdpi.com/2075-4663/12/7/177 1 98a14cc7-9c7e-11f1-9b0d-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=244773 Fakulteta za šport 0 0 0
