  • 2023 Budokan Tournament

    Spokane Judo was well-represented this weekend at the 2023 Budokan Tournament by Aries Flores who narrowly missed bring home the bronze in a very strong bracket. Her fighting shows how much she’s learned ~ she can’t wait for the next Shiai!

  • Senior Nationals Volunteers

    Pacific Judo needs volunteers for the upcoming Senior Nationals.
    Specifically, I would like to get at least 4 volunteers to help running a table on Saturday 5/20.
    I will be bugging everyone, so the earlier you sign up to help, the less everyone has to hear about it.
    The table help will have the best seat in the house for some of the best judo in the US, so don’t miss this chance to help and see some excellent judo.

  • Senior Nationals

    The Senior Nationals is coming up fast, May 20th. If you are born 2008 or older, you qualify to compete (Ryan).
    The link to sign up is:

    USA Judo Senior National Championships (teamusa.org)

    In order to register online, your date of birth and rank must be verified. Contact Austin Leath

    Let me know if you have any questions.

  • No Practice Saturday 3/25

    Saturday, the facility is being used for a cross fit kind of competition thing so we can’t workout. We will be back to normal on Monday.
    See everyone on Monday.
