Abstract

The article presents a brief historical analysis of the evolvement and development of women’s sambo and judo based on the analysis and generalization of archival data, periodical publications, scientific literature and conversations with veterans of wrestling of the Chuvash Republic. It is noted that the methodological basis for women’s sambo and judo evolvement in the Chuvash Republic was the experience of their cultivation in the sports section at the State Central Order of Lenin Institute of Physical Education (SCOLIPE), organized in the 1930s. Some omissions in the state policy in the field of physical culture and sports in cultivating women’s sports wrestling at the All-Union level are identified.

While working in the republican archives, pioneers and enthusiasts of women’s sambo and judo evolvement in the Chuvash Republic were identified. Through their efforts, the first successes of Chuvash athletes were achieved, which served as the basis for further competitive results and formation of sports traditions.

As the results of the study, a number of particular conclusions are formulated and conditions are specified, their complex implementation, according to the authors, will best contribute to the evolvement and development of newly cultivated sports.

The practice of Chuvash athletes’ performance in the international and All-Russian sports arena shows that there are ups and downs in the history of the development of all sports. Sports types of wrestling, including women’s sambo and judo, are no exception. In this regard, it is of interest to search for factors that determine the successful performance of athletes of these sports in competitive arenas of international and All-Russian levels.

The scientific novelty of the article lies in the fact that, based on the analysis of archival data, periodical publications, information from scientific literature and personal conversations with veterans of wrestling in Chuvashia, for the first time an attempt is made to identify factors that ensure, among others, a successful performance of Chuvash women-athletes at competitions of various levels.
