The Olympic sport of judo has a growing base of performance analysisudresearch considering the technical aspects, the tactical aspects and timeudmotion analysis. This study aimed to further analyse this sport by specificallyudconsidering the time motion aspects of work, rest, kumi-kata and ne-wazaudin lightweight women’s judo to establish if there are differences in thisudspecific population of judo athletes. Pre-recorded footage of the women’sudu48kg, u52kg and u57kg weight divisions (143 contests) from the 2010udworld judo championships were coded into temporal sequences. Theudcoding of five KPIs across the three weight groups produced a total of 1756udhajime to matte blocks (work), 1422 matte to hajime blocks (rest), 1786udkumi-kata sequences (gripping sequences), and 516 ne-waza sequencesud(ground work). The results suggest the time spent in hajime to matte (work)udand in matte to hajime (rest) are similar to those seen in other studies. Thisudsuggests there is little difference in the work to rest segments forudlightweight women’s judo compared to heavier weights and males.
