Judo News

Hi all

We are now in the middle of planning our annual trip to Lille.  It will be taking place over the weeknd of 14 and 15 April.  We travel out early on Saturday mornig and come back Sunday afternoon.

It is possible we may try to take one or two mini-busses this year as it appears as though all the earlybird type crossings on the Eurotunnel are already sold out for that weekend, so we will need to look carefully at the best options to keep costs down to a minimum.

Dear Club members

Happy New from all at Walderslade Judo Club

Hi

We have just been informed that the school has booked a last minute event in the hall on Monday 4 December. Although it is the first time they have done this to us this year, it is still very unfortunate and means that the club is unable to open this Monday.  We are very sorry about this but look foreward to seeing you on Friday or the following Monday.

Regards

Walderslade Judo Club
