NEW MAT FEES
As the membership agreed at the AGM last month, the monthly mat fees from January are increasing to:
Juniors U18: £20
Adults +18: £25
Family: £40.
Please can you update your standing order to take effect from January 1st with the new fees. While you are at it, can we ask that wherever possible you change the date on which the money is transferred to the 2nd of the month. If this is difficult because of when salaries go in, then leave as is, but otherwise it does help us if it all comes through on the same day.
This is the first increase in ten years, simply reflecting inflation. No further increase is anticipated for some years to come. The club belongs to YOU. All income goes towards expenses (e.g. rates, insurance, electricity) and the remainder towards improvement and support.
No club coach or official is paid, all are voluntary. This is the way the club has always been, and we hope always will be.
Samurai Judo Club welcomes new members, all ages from 6 to 76, experienced or inexperienced. If you are new to judo, below are some videos to show you a little about what it is all about, and the following pages tell you all about the sport and the club as well as info on our events.
The club is based in Kidderminster, Worcestershire. (See "Find Us" page for details.)
The club has both recreational and competitive sections. Come and have a free taster session to see what it's all about.
🥋It's fun and you learn a lot even on your first week🥋
