On Saturday 6th & Sunday 7th July, Yorkshire & Humberside Judo took across a team to take part in the International Judo Tournament in the Glaspalast Stadium, Sindelfingen, Germany. This event had over 2000 competitors from over 19 nations. The tournament is set over an impressive 9 mat areas, and most weight categories contain over 20 players.
All the players held really great accounts of themselves, gained valuable experience and have taken away some key lessons for future competitions. All players, coaches and parents really enjoyed the trip.
