About us

With over 45 years of Judo experience, I have completed for Great Britain at junior and senior levels, former England pathway coach and winner of the Hull Daily mail coach of the year award.

First walked on a tatami in 1977 as a beginner up to 4th dan. Competed at all levels before going in to coaching. Coaching at all levels from beginners to international competitors.

Bob started Judo in his 30’s. Over a number of years, he worked his way up to 1st Dan. He is a level 2 coach and has current 1st Aid, Safeguarding, DBS and a time to listen certificates.

Started Judo at age 10 and began coaching in his teens, has competed at national level, achieved 1st dan and everyone’s favourite Uke.

I started Judo 52 years ago and have achieved my 5th dan. Previously, I was on the area committee, a senior examiner, Yorkshire & Humberside squad coach and a club coach. I competed at all levels, however, my biggest achievement is making some of my best and longest friends.

David started Judo age 5 and 35 years later is still an active Judoka. A former British junior and senior international, Lamby as he’s known in Judo circles, competed all over the world with a memorable highlight when he lost his contact lens live on Israeli TV when fighting in a world grand prix event.

Karl began his Judo journey as a child age 6 to 11 and returned to it as an adult, achieving the grade of 2nd dan. He now has 30 years of experience and has a great break fall.

I started Judo at primary school, year 2, and carried on in to the EYJA club. I now represent England internationally and I am on the junior Great Britain team. I train with the club weekly. I now work with our young Judo players coming through from Primary School to Seniors.
