  • 2017 WA State Championship Results

    I was really pleased with the number of people from our club that attended the tournament last Saturday. All the competitors did well.

    Those who didn’t come home with a medal still deserve our recognition for showing up and fighting. Everyone has a bad day now and then. The only solution is train more for the next one!
    The next one is in 6 weeks here in Spokane, so come and let’s train hard.

    I am happy to post any photos anyone has, please send them on.

  • 2016 RAINIER CUP JUDO CHAMPIONSHIPS Results

    I wanted to congratulate Ben and Chris Mitchell for their performance at the tournament last weekend. Both Ben and Chris did an excellent job. Chris took 3rd place and unfortunately, Ben did not place.
    It is easy to get caught up in how you could do better, but showing up and competing is an achievement in itself.

  • Several things

    This week, I just have a few unrelated things.

    1. This Monday, Oct. 3rd, we are having another free introduction to judo class. Hopefully we will get some new members and introduce judo to some new people. If all of our current members can attend and help with the class, that would be great. We definitely need the help and your enthusiasm for judo should help inspire people to join.
    2. Speaking of new members, we have 5 new members this week. I would like to welcome (apologies for any misspellings) Timothy, Jared, Joseph, Jordan, and Catherine. Glad to have all of you with us.
    3. Finally, I wanted to say good luck to Chris, Ben, and Allen. Chris and Ben are competing this weekend and Allen is reffing
