On 2 February 2019, Sheffield University Judo club went, on what is turning into an annual trip, to Warwick University to take part in their annual competition.

With categories nicely setup for beginners (novices, reds and yellows in a group with green+ separate) it's an event we like to support.

For several of our players it was their first experience of Judo competition since starting with the club in September.

Well done all who took part:
