A nine strong British team will be looking to follow in the footsteps of previous GB gold medallists at the 2016 Under-23 European Judo Championships in Tel Aviv, Israel on Friday 11 and Saturday 12 November.

Craig Fallon (2004), Ashley McKenzie (2010) and Amy Livesey (2015) have all topped the medal rostrum at previous Under-23 Europeans and this year’s team will have the opportunity to join that select group.
