We are a thriving club of about 90 players providing high quality coaching by fully qualified BJA coaches. With a focus on respect for other players, safety and the enjoyment of judo.
Our competition players attend many competitions throughout the year and represent the full range of grades and ages in the club.
We are a club where players of all abilities can learn and enjoy judo in a safe and friendly environment.
Two years after the 61 youth club began, we decided to branch out and start a Judo Club. So in 1963 Don Elliot (1st Dan) became our coach. He stayed with us for ten years before handing over to Dave Bassein (2nd Dan) in 1973.
For the following 2 years Dave ran the club smoothly, before passing things onto Peter and Gina Edwards (3rd Dan). Mr and Mrs Edwards were with us for 10 years before retiring to New Zealand in October 1985.
On their retirement a new coach had to be found and we decided on Paul Jordan, a 22 year old 2nd Kyu (bottom brown belt), who in May 2000 obtained his competitive 5th Dan and is still currently our senior coach.
