Choosing the right platform for a judo club's online presence is crucial for its growth and community engagement. While Facebook is a popular and versatile social network, Judo Connect offers specific advantages tailored to the needs and aspirations of judo clubs. Here are three main reasons why Judo Connect is a better choice for a judo club compared to using Facebook as their primary social network:

Congratulations to Mich who completed his line up today, earning him his black belt! Mich had 5 fights and won them all by Ippon 💪🏼 ✔️🥋

Mich joined us from Cameroon through our University Judo club and has made outstanding progress since January.

Geraldine, another member from our Teesside University Judo club, also competed today. She won 4, lost 1 and drew 1, taking her to a total of 80 Dan grade points.

Mary fought really well despite being just 15, earning herself some dan grading points, however, picked up an injury. Speedy recovery Mary!

Huge congratulations to Dan eltorero1979 on his (belated) award for runner up in the Adult Improvement of the Year.

We give out the awards in January for the previous year, however Dan got injured literally the session before and has been out rehabbing since! We’re glad he’s fully healed and looking forward to seeing him more regularly!

Well done Dan!

We have an adult beginner/intermediate session Monday 8-9 for those interested! Get in touch for more information!

The bottom picture was at the Midlands event in Walsall in January 2020 just before the first lockdown - both put everything into their contest judo that day but missed out on the podium finish they both wanted.🥋

The top picture is the same event four years later in 2024 - and they both made the podium and medals in their groups ! 🥋

✅PERSEVERENCE
✅DEDICATION
✅RESILIANCE
✅ENTHUSIASM
✅COURAGE
✅FUTURE BLACK BELTS

They have both also completed our young leaders awards and just finishing their British Judo level 1 Coaching Award

Every judo players journey begins with steping onto the mat and for this lot is started at the end of in January.
We run an introduction to judo on a Sunday and from the shy bunch that they mostly were have stuck with it have grown over the past weeks into happy little tigers on the mat. A few wanted a match with our Neeson so he happy obliged 😀
Some have just passed there first Grading either Mon or Kia so as this was our last session we had some fun matches and a little team battle at the end kia v mons.
Kias came away with the victory of the older mons 😉 #injudowetrust

We learned so much from Don and Pinewood Judo Club. He will be forever missed ❤️

Much love,

The Irritant

10 years ago Don Werner passed away at 1:08am 9th January. It is a strange thought that many of the current members of Pinewood didn't meet him. I think and hope he would be pleased to see the flame he lit still burns brightly.

Rest in peace Don

Last session for our first 2 classes and it was party time. No pics available because what happens at the Par Christmas Party stays at the Par Christmas Party!! 😉😆

It did also mark the end of a week of torture for all of the kids as Steve had graded them all last week and made them wait all that time to find out if they’d passed!! Such a cruel coach!! 🤣🤣

Last senior session is next week and then we’re done until 9th January.
Have a great Christmas everyone!!🎄🎅🏼🧑‍🎄
