Rick Kenney (OBE) 8th Dan will once again be leading the Masters Training Sessions for 2025.Rick has over 50 years in Judo and is currently the President Of The Commonwealth Judo Association as well as holding the position of Honorary Vice President of JudoScotland.
Rick has competed for Scotland and GB in both judo & wrestling and was GB Team Manager in the early 1980’s at both the European and World Championships.
If you can make it along you won’t be disappointed, you will also get an opportunity to take part in an open randori at your chosen pace with others of a similar age.
Assisting Rick leading the sessions will be Jim Feenan 6th Dan, between them they bring a great wealth of knowledge to the sessions.
As with previous sessions we will be following the usual format, coaching for around an hour followed by randori for the rest of the time for those who are up for it. £5 mat fee.
We have now adopted the new payment method where we are looking for everyone to pre-register and pay online via the JudoScotland website.

This is important to ensure your membership is up to date and you are insured.
Although pre-registration is preferred and is the defacto method of payment moving forward, there will be an option to pay cash on the day if anyone has issues or you make a last minute decision to attend.
If you have not used the JudoScotland booking system before, put in your Membership number as username and select you have forgotten your password.
If your membership has expired or you are new to the sport and do not have a membership, you can either scan a QR code in the dojo or I will ask you to complete a Membership form, this will then give you 4 free months membership for the price of 12.
If you are a non-JudoScotland member or have issues with the online payment, please contact JudoScotland by phone on +44 (0) 131 333 2981.
Please ensure you lock this date into your diary as it’s one not to be missed.

Looking forward to seeing you all there for a busy mat.
