25th October 2009 - Hampshire split grade open, all fought very well with everyone winning a medal:  Britney & Rachel bronze in the red/yellow belts, Szymon in his first competition won Gold again in the red/yellow belts, Sasha Silver in the orange/green and Tom bronze in the senior 2nd kyu and below.  This was Tom's first senior competition.

10th & 11th October 2009 - Another weekend travelling this time to Sheffield for the British Championships for the older age groups 12 to 17 years.  Henry & tom both competing in their first ever championships both fought well and both gave 100%.  Henry exceeded expectations to narrowly missing out (by a yuko) on a Bronze to secure 5th place, an excellent achievement.

4th October 2009 - WELL DONE to Charlie for winning Bronze at the British Championships for 10 & 11 year olds in Dagenham.  He fought really well winning 5 fights by Ippon and only just loosing one which kept him from booking a place in the finals.  To win a medal in 2 consecutive years is an excellent achievement.

16th September 2009 - CONGRATULATIONS to Joe  
for passing his driving test.  Yet another BJK member on the road!!!! 

13th September 2009 - Well done to Paul who revalidated as a coach.

12th September 2009 - WELL DONE to Henry & Thomas who got selected to fight in the British Championships 2009.

18th August 2009 - Well done to those who achieved their next grade:  Szymon - 1st Mon, Rachel & Britney - 3rd Mon, Charlie - 11th Mon, Henry - 12th Mon and Thomas 13th Mon. 

13th July 2009 - Excellent day out was had at the Western Area Open held in Swindon, where Charlie in u34kgs under 12's fought exceptionally well to win all his fights to win GOLD.  Henry and Sasha fighting in the under 16's u46kgs and u36kgs categories to both win BRONZE. 

6th & 7th June 2009 - WELL DONE and thank you to all those that supported our Mini-Mon and Junior Open held over this weekend.  Especially to all the officials and parents and players that helped run this event.

17th May - Western Area Closed, Kingsbridge.  4 of our players fought in these championships and we had 100% success with all 4 winning medals and 3 of these were Gold.  Charlie started the day in the under 12's u34 kgs section meeting a few good fighters to secure a place in the final which he won to be crowned Western Area Champion 2009.  Then it was down to see if his brother could match this which he did in spectacular fashion to also be crowned champion.

Then it was down to Sasha and Tom to keep the momentum going, Sasha fought extremely well to also win Gold with Tom who was in a very hard group winning a few fights to win a Bronze.  These medals helped Bristol secure 3rd spot which was excellent bearing in mind the counties small squad that made the trip.

Mini-Mon 6th June has been upgraded to a 2 star licence.

On Sunday 10th May, Sam competed at High Wycombe in the 61 JC junior & youth open.  Sam fought extremely well to win Silver in the u60 kgs youth category.  Well done Sam.

Sunday 26th April - A Squad of 5 travelled up to Walsall to compete in the Midland Area green belt and below, Senior Kyu grade championships.  A excellent day was had with 3 silver medals being won.  First up was the girls with Britney fighting in her first competition of this level, a great improvement was seen with an excellent win unfortunately not enough to go thorough to the next round.  Sasha was next up in a straight pool of 4 winning a Silver.

Then was the turn of our boys, Charlie was up in a group of 9 winning his first 3 fights to go through to the semi-finals in first place, in the semi he was trailing by waza-ari to pull of an excellent Ippon with 22 seconds to spare to book his place in the final.  However his opponent was just too strong and Charlie ended up with our 2nd Silver.  Tom was again in a large group of 10 and fought very well but was unable to progress through to the second round.

Finally was Sam in the seniors blue & brown section.  Sam was in a straight pool and done well winning a few fights which left the pool on a 3 way tie which meant they had to refight.  After this Sam ended up with Silver.

So WELL DONE to all some excellent Judo.
