SJV / FSJ · ~250-300 clubs · ~16,000 Budoka · founded 1937

  • CHF (TWINT rolling out), nLPD-compatible hosting — data in the EU, on the Swiss adequacy list

The SJV runs a dual-system architecture — Paak complements, doesn't replace.

Fairgate (Swiss vendor) runs members and club administration; the SJV backend runs on it at sjv.ch/backend. JudoManager (Datastat, Slovenia, official IJF software) runs competitions and the Dan Register at portal.judomanager.com/sjv. You keep both. Honest position: Fairgate is a direct Paak competitor and the SJV backend runs on it — the SJV is Tier 3 on Paak's CH roadmap. Different playing field: we coexist for everything outside the federation.

Youth protection · Sonderprivatauszug

Sonderprivatauszug recommended for SJV sensei.

Switzerland has no direct equivalent to the French law of 8 March 2024, but Swiss Olympic — of which the SJV is a member — recommends the Sonderprivatauszug for anyone in regular contact with minors, as part of the joint programme with the BASPO/OFSPO "No sexual abuse in sport".

Frequently asked

Is the SJV Kyu-Dan system tracked?

Yes. Full progression 6 Kyu + Dan. The sjvDanRegisterEntry field is tracked on the athlete profile, linked to the official register sjv.ch/danregister.

Does Paak replace Fairgate + JudoManager?

No. The SJV uses a dual-system architecture: Fairgate (backend member management) + JudoManager (IJF, competitions and Dan Register). You keep both. Paak is complementary — and transparent: Fairgate is a competitor, the SJV is Tier 3 on our CH roadmap.

Is there a public SJV API?

No SJV-published API directly. Two paths: Fairgate Standard API (but Fairgate is a competitor); JudoManager API gated via Account.IJF.org. Bridge today: CSV import.

Are SJV age categories supported?

Yes. U15, U18, U21, Elite. Fight duration 4 minutes, upward mobility. IJF rules.

Is the Judo + Ju-Jitsu dual discipline managed?

Yes. The SJV unifies both disciplines under one federation. Paak supports this duality without duplicate configuration.
