HISTORY
NEW CLASSES OPEN UP AT EJC
A new chapter in the history of EJC begins on Monday 12th July 2010 as two new classes are added as a regular feature of our timetable, offering red and yellow belts another class in the week and also providing some high level conditioning and drill work to the more advanced club members.
2010 BEGINS IN THE SNOW

Our first day back (Wednesday 6th January) was cancelled as the car park was an ice rink but on the 2nd day we braved it: with no central heating, it was pretty cold. Above are our shivering Intermediates:

IN THE BEGINNING...
Ealing Judo Club was established on April 10th 2003. On this day our first class was attended by 15 children from the local area. That beginners' class is now thriving and has naturally progressed into the four classes we now run each week. Our total membership is up to 95 and is growing all the time.
We entered our first tournament in only May of that same year, 2003. Little Joe Wood fought in the Ford Mini-Mon. Since then we have increased our competition schedule to approximately 60 events per year, including trips to Belgium, France, Holland and Italy, and even Eastern Europe.
Our first National medal came in April 2004, with our Juliet being selected to fight in the London Area Girls' Team at the National Team Championships at Burgess Hill. The team took silver.
Since then we have added to the list, with a total of 31 medals from 16 different fighters and are looking forward to continuing with a fantastic 2009/10.
We now have a thriving Adult Class and an extremely healthy Beginners' Class. Everything in between is looking pretty tasty too! If you would like to visit or join us please contact us via the details on the Home Page.

This was us in November 2004
