In her own words, Kirsty Wilson reflects on her unexpected journey from judo competitor to referee, highlighting the personal and competitive benefits of officiating in judo. My judo journey began when I was just three years old. Little did my parents or I know that 13 years later I would be so invo...

We are proud to be part of a new initiative from FabLittleBag and JudoScotland that provides free and easy-to-access period products for the judo community!

Periods can sometimes affect someone's ability to partake in sport (especially an unexpected one!), so by having accessible products within the club, we hope to give our members some extra confidence to train and break the stigma around periods ๐Ÿ’ช

Following our judo session with royalnavyjudo, Liam and Matthew took us on a very informative tour of HMS Queen Elizabeth.

It was great learning about all of the different features of the ship and how the crew work to keep everything operational. We got to get our hands on the navigation bridge, had a race on the flight deck and a quick game of darts too!

Thank you again to Liam and Matthew for organising a spectacular day ๐Ÿ‘

Congratulations to EdinburghJudoโ€™s newest 1st Dan, Finn T ๐ŸŽ‰

Finn received the final points required for his black belt back in March and successfully completed his theory exam down in South Shields at the weekend.

Finnโ€™s consistency and increased commitment to training over the last year has shown itself through his recent results in competition and now in achieving his black belt. We look forward to seeing Finn continue to work hard on the mat, in the gym and putting in the time to develop his judo further as a 1st Dan - the real work starts now!

Well done Finn! ๐Ÿคœ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿค›

Patrick completed his 1st Dan theory over a year ago and recently started competing again, taking bronze in the -73KG category after a good day of contests at the Clyde Grand Prix.

Over the last few months Patrickโ€˜s judo has been developing through consistent training and putting his all into every session. He is a great competitor, speaks to his opponents whether he wins or loses and is very responsive to mat side coaching.
