Sorry it has been sometime since I have written been on our annual Summer details of this to follow
The recent World judo championships in Holland and have just finished I already have seen some of the video footage. The BJA sent a 14 person team results one medal from Katrina Bryant the following made the last 16 Peter Cousins, Faith Pitman, Sally Conway once again we rely on the women to bring back pride to British Judo It is rumoured that some of our competitors are getting £20,000 a year to train plus trips to exotic places so we have a team of Real Professional Judoka but where are the results? In the days of the Amateur we produced World medal winners like Dave Starbrook, Brian Jacks, neil Adams, Keith Remfry, Angelo Parisi, Paul Radburn, Arthur Mapp, Design White I could go on it obvious money can not produce World Class judoka and with Judo in the UK in decline surely the money could be put to better use.
