British Judo and Bishops Stortford Judo Club are delighted to be able to announce a group of 9 judoka representing Great Britain at the EJU Kids Camp in Zagreb, Croatia linked to the 2024 European Judo Championships. The majority of the group are part of the England Development Squad (EDS) or England Performance Potential (EPP) Squad and will be accompanied and supported by their club coaches, Joe and Nicole Nunn.

 

Matt Divall, Head of Performance Pathways at British Judo commented, ‘With huge thanks to the European Judo Union, this exciting opportunity has been afforded to Bishops Stortford Judokwai, who have developed an impressive breadth and depth to the judoka in their club. This unique experience, which we are delighted to be able to support and  will help in the participants’ technical development and provide valuable exposure to the live action and excitement of the European Championships, ahead of the forthcoming World Championships and of course, Paris Olympic Games.’

 

Nicole Nunn, coach at Bishops Stortford said, ‘This is a great opportunity for our younger fighters. Not only will they be exposed to some other really talented athletes but will also be able to watch some top flight competition at the European Championships, so it will be a really immersive experience for everyone. We are also grateful to the EJU and British Judo for creating this opportunity.’
