And it’s a healthy slice of BJA Approved fast track grading success for Fraser Francis tonight 🔥🔥
Promited from “novice” (not a novice lol) to green belt in one fell swoop. 🙌🏽💪🏼
A rare talent is our beloved Mr Francis - a fantastic embracing of judo, incredible natural talent, and a well deserved Sussex champion. It’s about time he got some colour round that waist! 🤣
Massive congrats and thoroughly well deserved 🙌🏽

Results from Kin Ryu Judo Club’s Kyu grade competition this weekend:
💥 Pete Lassman - Silver 🥈
💥 Graham Magnoni-Page - Silver 🥈
Outstanding effort from the boys! Some great judo, some cracking ippon wins, and some fantastic experience gained at this well run event. A silver medal each builds beautifully on Pete and Grahams bronze medals that they won at the Sussex Trials earlier in the year. Very pleased to see such positive progression.
And finally, a big thank you to the G&P Ryan Ashton for taking up coaching responsibilities on the day 🙏🏽
On to the next! 👊🏽🥋🔥

And it’s a bronze medal 🥉 for Will Thomas at the High Wycombe Masters! A tenacious performance at his first judo competition with a podium finish in a very strong category 🙌🏽
Highlight of the day was a slick bit of shime-waza to score ippon against a much higher grade 🔥💪🏼
Will has been absolutely smashing it since joining us just a couple of months ago. Red belt in the bag and now a bronze medal at a very prestigious competition on the Masters circuit. Onto the next! Let’s have it! 🥋👊🏼

📣 And it’s a promotion to black belt for our beloved Max Guy 🔥
As if there was any doubt this would happen! 🤣❤️ An absolutely fantastic performance from Max up at Dartford today. Five wins, five ippons, line up completed in well under a minute, and finishing on 130 points. Let’s hear it for the big old maki komi enthusiast! 🙌🏽
Since coming back to judo last year as a junior green belt, Max has been amassing the spicy achievements: working through the Kyu grades, three gold medals 🥇🥇🥇 including the 2024 Sussex title at 90kg 🥇🥋, and now a black belt via winning a line up.
Massive congratulati
