Official Competition Surface - Sambo

The combat surface used for Sambo, generally made of approved tatami mats, plays a crucial role in the practice and competition of this combat sport. This combat area provides a controlled, secure and resilient surface that minimizes the risk of injury during the throws and holds characteristic of Sambo.

Tatami mats, with adequate density, absorb shock while providing sufficient grip for athletes' dynamic movements. The precise demarcation of the combat area with distinct colors makes it easier for fighters and referees to understand the limits, thus contributing to the rigorous application of the rules of Sambo.

In summary, the combat surface is designed to create a safe and controlled environment, allowing practitioners to fully engage in Sambo while minimizing the risk of serious injury.
