ALL ARE WELCOME...

In comparison to many sports and pastimes judo is relatively inexpensive to take up. The only equipment you need is a judo suit (judo-gi) and these can be purchased fairly cheaply through the club. Training fees are only payable for sessions that you attend. 

There are two annual subscription you may/need to pay for, 

  1. membership of the club, this is purely voluntary, however you will be entitled to reduced mat fee's  for being a member.

  2.  membership of a judo association which covers your personal liability insurance and allows you to be graded and take part in the various events organised throughout the year. That you may or may not attend.  (payable after 1 month of joining/starting at the club).

(Please ask in club for current prices)
