Judo starts up again tomorrow. All of our normal classes are
taking place even though we have the Auckland International Open this
weekend.
Over the holiday’s the instructors and senior members
discussed a number of matters and we are aiming to the achieve the following
actions this term:
Support
the Auckland International Open (30-31 July) – We have 8 kids and 1 adult
fighting in this competition. It is New Zealand’s biggest competition so it
will be great to watch. If you can provide a couple of hour on either day just
turn up and we will find work for you!
More mats
for Pukekohe – By moving our mats around we can free up another ten mats
for Pukekohe. This will give Pukekohe a mat area
the same size as town. Great for growing the seniors out there!
Another
night in town – We have enough instructors available and committed in the
city that we can now look at another night during the week providing the church
has the times available
Take a
big team to the Howick competition (14 August) – This competition is ‘entry
level’ and there are ‘white belt’ categories. It is well run and a perfect
opportunity for kids and adults to try out competition Judo.
Grow our
senior numbers – The team at Puke
have done really well. We have a regular
group of seniors out there now and have kept that class going. We also need to
make sure we don’t lose momentum in the city. So keep telling your mates!
We are looking forward to the term and hope that everybody keeps on supporting us! Thanks heaps
