Sho gradings
We are planning to hold our first grading session for players aged under eight years and on the Judo Kids scheme shortly after the half term.
We have put aside Tuesday 15th and Thursday 17th June to grade players to 1st and 2nd sho.
To grade, you must have an in date Judo Kids licence, and present it on the day. Sho gradings remain free of charge.
A mon grading for older players will be held in July.
Licences can be purchased with membership from the British Judo Association.
Congratulations to our new grades!

Please remember that grades will only be registered with the BJA upon receipt of the correct grading fee. Players must be in possession of a current licence.

Craig takes big step towards his black belt
Craig Jones gained twenty points towards his 1st Dan at a grading in Horsham on Sunday.
Craig came back from a loss in his first fight, when he was held down, to score two ippon wins in his next two contests.
This takes Craig’s points score to forty, nearly half way to his black belt.
Well done Craig – keep going!
Congratulations to our latest new grades!
We are delighted to confirm the following new grades:
2nd mon
- Samuel Allen
7th mon (orange belt)

As we are now have several mid grade players, we will be encouraging players to move up to later sessions – we wil speak to players individually over the next few weeks.
This will enable us to focus our coaching more appropriately.
