Newaza had been accomplished as an eleabprate work of art by the desperate efforts of students of collges through All Japan Intercollege Judo Champoinships started in 1914 and endied in 1940 due to teh outbreak of II World War. However, the exquisite Newaza of those days nearly disappeared from Shia in Japan after the War under the influence of reduction of a time limit of Shiai since most contestants concentrated on Nage-waza in order to try to win Shiai with Nage-waza only within the shortened time limit of shiai such as 6 minutes or 8 minutes. They thought as if it would take considerable time to fight to the finish with Newaza. This eagerness of gaining Shiai with Nage-waza only caused almost complete decadence to Newaza for more than ten years after the War. This decadent tendency was seen during the 1st All Japan Judo Champonships held in 1948 in Tokyo. Ippon-gachi by Osaekomi-waza were only 5 and none by either by Shime-waza or Kansetsu-waza against 27 Ippon-gachi by Nage-waza. This tendency was also seen during the 1st World Judo Champonships held n 1956 in Tokyo. 25 Ippoon-gachi were gained, out of which 3 were gained by Osaekomi-wazi and 2 were gained by Shime-waza. The ratio of Ippon-gachi by Newaza to those by Nage-waza became more stagnant during the 2nd World Judo Champoinships held in 1958 in Tokyo than the preceding Championships. Namely, only one Ippon-gachi each by Osekomi-waza and Shime-waza were gained against 27 Ippon-gachi by Nage-waza.

At the 3rd World Judo Champoinships held in 1961 in Paris when the title of the World Judo Championship was taken away from Japan by Osaekomi-waza of a Netherlander, the indispensability of practising Newaza was recognized again as the pressing need for restoration of Judo in Japan. The evils of too much concentration on Nage-waza have been gradually remedied since then in Japan and overseas countries. You may see the tendency of putting importance on Newaza from the following number of Ippon-gachi gained by Newaza during the 7th World Judo Champoinships held in 1971 in Ludwigshafen and the 20th Olympic Games held in 1972 in Munich. Drung the former, 60 Ippon-gachi were gained by Newaza out of 162 Ippon-gachi and during the latter, Ippon-gachi by Newaza were 37 against 50 Ippon-gachi by Nage-waza.

As Nage-waza and Newaza are like the two wheels of a cart , they hould be evenly practised by every Judoka. Any chance to enter Newaza should not be missed. We tried to explain Newaza from various angles for our systematic study of Newaza in relation to Nage-waza. It is our sincere hope that you will acquire through the pages something of value to improve your Judo by furthering the practice of Newaza.

Lastly, we wish to express our sincere gratitude to Mr. yoshiro Kaihara, 4th dan, Mr. Yoichi Hirose, 2nd dan, and other Judo friends who assisted us for their invaluable cooperation extended to publish this book.
