We had three entries in the 2017 West of England Age Band Open for Minors and Pre-Cadets held at Hutton Moor Leisure Centre in Weston-Super-Mare on 22/07/2017.
The club’s results were:
Excellent results in a tough competition. Well done!
The Judo competition is over in the 2017 Youth Commonwealth Games and the Scotland team captured 4 medals – 1 Gold, 2 Silvers and a Bronze.
Emily Ritchie took Gold in the O70kg category.
Fiona Todman took Silver in the U48kg category.
Emma Forest took Silver in the U57kg category.
And our own Louis Saez took Bronze in the U90kg category.
Connor Wilson made his way to the quarter final; lost that and then, unfortunately, was injured out of his repêchage match.
Ryan Quigley made his way to the Bronze final, just losing out on a medal.
Amazing results – 4 medals out of 6 entries and at this level of competition. A great start to Team Scotland’s campaign.
A “really well done” for all of you!
The Commonwealth Youth Games Judo is on just now and you can watch a live stream of the action (for at least one of the mats) here.
Whilst Connor Wilson and Louis Saez are busy getting used the weather in the Bahamas (a high of 33 degrees today!), we did have one competition entry over the weekend.
Benedict MacLennan-Patton was competing in the 2017 High Wycombe Summer Ne-Waza Championships on Saturday 15/07/2017 and won the Bronze medal in the Male open grade (Dan grades) U81kg category.

Judo Scotland has announced National Squad Selections.
Two Clyde Judo judoka have been selected to the Junior & Senior squad for the period July to December 2017:
This is a great accolade for the athletes and coaches – it has involved a lot of hard work to reach this stage and shows a commitment for the future hard work that will be involved in being part of the squad.
Really well done!
(For those interested, details of the various Judo Scotland performance pathways can be found here.)
