Nothing says thank you like actually saying thank you

With just two weeks left to nominate the volunteers who make a difference to your judo experience, now is the time to go on line and register your nomination for the British Judo Awards.

This is an opportunity to say thank you, the BJA sends a thank you card to every nominee – each card includes details of who submitted the nomination and the reason for the nomination.

Nominations will be categorised based on the roles undertaken and four nominees from each category will go forward into the final. All finalists will be invited to the annual awards dinner where they will be presented with an award.

Nominations are being accepted from anyone and you can nominate any volunteer for any reason you like. The list below details the categories used last year but these are not set in stone.
