I am quite short and think this gives me a disadventage in grappling. Longer arms make it easier to grab a grip or a leg and longer legs make techniques like uchi mata, harai goshi and ashi guruma or other sweeps easier. Of course in competition I would have weight classes but when I grapple with friends it doesn't work that well. What advice do you have when grappling taller opponents?

[@BMO4ever]

I think your sacrifice throws should have scored.

[@BMO4ever]

May I ask how tall you are ans what weight class you are in?

[@t.weber64kg]

I’m 5’5” and 64kg weight class

And why didn't they score the ouchi?

[@t.weber64kg]

I was told it was due to me entering into it low and on my knees

[@BMO4ever]

@@t.weber64kg I still don't understand it. Can't you do ouchi dropping on your knees? For many takedowns you have to drop low.
