British Open

Yesterday in my position as Chairman British Sombo Federation I had a meeting with the President of the Commonwealth Sambo Association Lord Reading. The meeting was arranged to clear up any misunderstanding between the two organisations. I am glad to say the meeting was a complete success I found Lord Reading to be a very pleasant, intelligent and influential person who has the interest of Sombo at heart and I believe the BSF can help him in promote a viable Commonwealth Sambo Association

Also lets not forget the British Open in June

Bedford Grappling Academy

Bedford Grappling Academy take medals in International Judo 





Bedford Grappling Academy has enjoyed yet more success at the Belgium Multination Judo
Championship on Sunday 21st April 

The first member to participate was Matthew Loeffler (15) in the under 46kg and after dominating and winning all his fights, he claimed gold. Next up was Cyeanne Eaton (15) who put up a fantastic performance in the Youth Ladies under 52kg tournament and she also claimed gold. Lastly, Adam Dodds (16) had a difficult first fight but went on to win the next two and came away with a bronze medal.
All three members put on a superb performance and are a credit to the club.

Head coach Russell Dodds quoted "we only entered three players to the multi nations because we have only been back a few weeks from the Dutch open and was down to people not being able to afford to do both, at the Dutch open we had great results and to repeat this again has made me a very proud coach and shows that all the hard work and dedication is now producing rewards". The BGA is a club that has so much enthusiasm from not only the players, coaches but also the parents

IBF Multi Nation Judo


Below is a report from John Clarke on the IBF Multi Nations the club were accompanied by the Bedford Grappling Academy their report to follow

I think John has been very diplomatic in his report the interpretation of the ridiculous new IJF Judo Rules were far from perfect Bradley should never have been disqualified and allowing men and women to compete against each other was taking equality a step to far but well done to all



Belgium 2013





John Clarke
I.B.F. Multination’s Judo Championships

Seventeen members of The Warriors Grappling Academy/Young Judo Club met
outside their Sittingbourne dojo at 4:30 Sunday morning, for the three and a half hour trip to Kortrijk, Belgium and The I.B.F. Multination’s. The eight competitors in the team, ranged from novices to 2nd.dans, and for some, was their first judo competition.
Youngest member of the team was 13 year old Lewis Clarke, a junior blue belt, and this was to be his first time fighting on foreign soil. Possibly nerves and the occasion got to him a little, as this was not one of his best performances, but still he managed a creditable third place and a bronze medal.
Emily Woods (15) has only been doing judo for a couple of months, and this was her first ever competition. She won two of her four fights, including one victory with a strangle, against a lot heavier and more experienced opponent, and came away with a hard fought silver medal.
For Oliver Bruton, Matt Wood and Keith Brown, this was also their first judo event. Although they finished outside the medal positions, all three gave their very best and were a credit to the club.
2nd. Dan Bradley Belsey moved up a weight group. In his first fight he threw his opponent with Kata Garuma, but was unfortunately disqualified for using his hand on his opponent’s leg. With the new leg grab rules in place, he was not only disqualified from this fight, but also from the rest of the tournament.
The two stars of the show were 2nd. Dan’s Cassey Belsey and Daniel Diamond. Both destroyed all opposition put in front of them with a series of ippon throws. Undefeated, they both claimed a gold medal and he European title.
Coach John Clarke had this to say: “It just goes to show, that all the hard training and dedication has paid off for this team. The club is extremely proud of what they have achieved.”

Sombo Newsletter


British Sombo Federation

NEWS

The BSF have several events planned over the next few months see some of the dates below we also will be offering Sombo Instructors course throughout England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. National Coach Allan Clarkin will continue to offer excellent courses in Combat Sambo at his Gym in Burnley. Our main event of the year is our British Open and we already have a contingent form the USA and Cameroon so we need your support. To encourage more people to try Sombo we will be loaning Jackets and shorts out on the day plus children can wear a Judo Jacket and Shorts. Combat Sambo as sport we all thought would be a big hit in the UK has not managed to grab the attention of the public. So if you know any MMA fighters who want to try their art wearing a jacket get them to have a go.

Is anyone interested in becoming a CombatSombo Instructor the self defence system invented by FIAS Sombo Grand Master Martin Clarke? if so contact him on IBFBCSA@Gmail.com remember he offers Camcorder grading in Sombo, CombatSombo plus other Martial Arts


Our British Open is also a trial for the Worlds in St Petersburg in November both President Robin Hyslop and International Co-ordinator Russell Dodds will be attending the event and we will be taking a team. The problem is finance as most of you know UKSport will be only supporting the top Olympic sports with regard to funding so Sports like Sombo have to fund themselves, the BSF has only barely enough money to cover affiliation to the World Body FIAS let alone any other expenses our Committee pay for all their own travel and accommodation and with it highly unlikely that FIAS will fund the GB team so the cost could be prohibitive, that is why we rune the event in June so competitors can raise funds from their clubs, Councils, Charities etc. It is hoped that in the future FIAS will fund the UK and this will be the main task of our new President Robin Hyslop to convince them of our need.

Yet not all is lost there are competitions in France, Germany and Austria which are priced at something we can afford for example the French have an event in Paris and in Germany there is one in Dortmund a reasonable driving distance form Calais, events which will be in our level of expertise, there is no trials for these and any BSF member can enter on condition they have a modicum of experience i.e. enter some tournaments. In the past we have thrown competitors in at the deep end by putting them in the Worlds, Europeans etc. at the request of FIAS but unless we get funding from them this no longer possible plus our players need more international experience so taking part in lower grade tournaments is the way to go. Remember Matthew Clempner was first GB World Medallist in 2012 for over 20 years before that John Clarke managed a 7th in 2007. So time for a change. None of this can happen with out your support.

Russell Dodds starts up a new company selling al Sombo/Sambo equipment plus all types of Martial Arts equipment discounted prices for BSF/IBF members Russell.doods@sportsdirect
.com

Many have asked about the Commonwealth Sambo Association it is hoped the BSF will soon be involved with this organisation in the future. BSF Chairman Martin Clarke has been invited to a meet the President Lord Reading to find out more details of membership and the future of this organisation
