A day after the Juniors had put on a show at the English Institute of Sheffield it was the Seniors turn to go for silverware in the 2015 Senior British Championships on Sunday 13 December.

The -57kg category proved to be one of the hardest to call with young Acelya Toprak (Metro) producing one of the results of the day as she beat Commonwealth Games medallist Connie Ramsay for ippon in golden score. Toprak just missed out on a medal with Laure Fournier (Camberley) winning a hard-earned gold

The -73kg was another quality competition with Aaron Turner (Camberley) and Patrick Dawson (Edinburgh Club) the standout judoka. Their contest in the second round pool decided the gold medal with Patrick Dawson taking the title.

In the -63kg Lucy Renshall (SKK) finished a big year for her on a high as she won her first Senior British title to go along with her Junior European gold and Junior World bronze while Gary Hall (Team Bath) was in dominant form throughout in the -90kg category.
