Inclusion in Judo

Inside Inclusion Workshops: Creating an inclusive judo culture

Judo was designed to develop us as individuals to contribute to our community, and British Judo strives to support our individuals and community to create environments for participants to belong.

An inclusive sport promotes and sustains a sense of belonging; it values and practices respect for the talents, beliefs, backgrounds and way of living for its participants, organisers, spectators and leadership.

Following the success of our recent workshops, British Judo are delighted to confirm three more dates for Volunteers, Officials and Referees to join the free, online, workshop which will focus on how we collectively create an inclusive culture across judo.
