In recent years, the introduction of corporate sponsorship into the sports world, the awarding of prize money in competitions, and the payment of bonuses to famous athletes have been marked. It appears that the payment of prize money (including bonuses) is becoming firmly established in Japan. Our study focused on judo, a discipline which recently has been undergoing a difficult transition from a martial art into a sport. Our objective was to survey judo practitioners on the significance of prize money and annuities, and to consider the various problems associated with monetary support of judo athletes. The survey was carried out using a questionnaire format. Questions were grouped into 10 categories, including the necessity of a prize money system, the amount of prize money, and the necessity of an annuity system. The questionnaires were distributed and returned during a 4-month period from March through June, 1994. Two thousand survey questionnaires were distributed to schools and corporations, with valid replies totaling 35.1%. The results show that a high ratio of respondents (80.2%) affirmed the necessity for a prize money system. The most commonly cited reason for this view was that "it results in greater dedication from the athletes and increases the level of competition" (79.9%). With regard to an annuity system, respondents indicating it was necessary (64.2%) outnumbered those indicating it was unnecessary (35.8%). Among the reasons cited for it not being necessary, those pertaining to "educational value" were conspicuous. These findings depict the characteristics of judo as it is currently viewed in Japan, and suggest that in our country, conformity with educational values is a topic for discussion. From the viewpoint of promoting judo as a competitive sport, the findings from this survey should prove useful in investigating methods for implementing monetary remuneration.
