September Competitions

The Club may be shut for the summer, but that doesn’t stop us planning for the future!

There are a number of competitions to consider in September, these would be ideal first competitions for our red belts or an ideal test for our yellow belts who wish to grade up to orange in the autumn, or entertain other competitive aspirations.

First up, is the Red, Yellow and Orange Belt Competition at Dartford, on 14 September. Entry is limited to 150 players, so be quick! Azhar has already been to Dartford, he can tell you what a stunning Judo facility it is!

A week later, it is the South Coast Red and Yellow Belt Rumble at Worthing, Traditionally, the yellow belt section has been very competitive, so a good test! The Red Belt Rumble earlier in the year was cancelled, so please support this event to make sure it doesn’t go the same way.

We are also considering an entry to this year’s Southend International, more details when we return after the summer.

Maddy and Marcus help Portsmouth claim silver medal in Hampshire & Isle of Wight Games

Marcus and Maddy with Portsmouth's silver medal winning team

Marcus and Maddy with Portsmouth’s silver medal winning team


Maddy Cox and Marcus Tree helped Portsmouth to a silver medal in this year’s Hampshire and Isle of Wight Games.

Marcus won both his fights, one by ippon and the other by penalties.

Maddy, who was giving away a lot of weight, showed the same spirit in competition as she has shown in training recently.

The journey to Aldershot was nearly as adventurous as last year’s journey home…

The only disappointment on the day was the low entry from other areas, with only four teams entered in the judo tournament – the others being Eastleigh, Hart and Deane and Winchester. Portsmouth was the only area to enter a full team of 9 players, Winchester only having a team of 3.

*Mieszko Polak was also originally entered to compete in this tournament, however we realised late on that no reserves were allowed this year, and we had to advise 4 players that they would not be competing. Our apologies to all affected.

Next competition is the Kent International, which will see Jack Rogerson representing the Club, followed by the Hampshire Open.

Kev in the medals

medals
Kev Jones added another Masters medal to his collection with a bronze in the -100kg event at Saturday’s High Wycombe Masters.

Masters (or Veterans – Sorry Kev!) Judo is one of the fastest growing areas of Judo, with Great Britain having its own Masters squad, and European and World Championships for players. Needless to say, with his usual luck, Kev found himself competing against some of the best players in his age and weight group.

NHC Minimons

George Edwards represented the Club at the recent Northern Home Counties Mini Mons competition, held at the High Wycombe Judo Centre.

The competition was run on a knock out basis. George won his first fight by superiority, before a 2nd round loss put him in the repechage. In his third fight, George quickly scored a waza-ari, which his opponent worked hard to claw back, before scoring a conclusive yuko which eliminated George from the competition.
