Welcome to Cowbridge Judo Club's web site
Welcome to the Cowbridge Judo club site, I hope the information your require is easily found regarding the Club & Judo in general (if not email me and I'll endeavour to make it available.
My name is Stephen Cooper and I coach Judo at the Cowbridge club. The club has been running since Nov.07 and is registered with the British Judo Association (BJA) & Welsh Judo Association (WJA)
A bit about myself: - I have been practising Judo over 25years on & off. I have a black belt in Judo and coaching level II. I also have been CRB checked as part of the coaching requirements. I have also been involved playing & coaching other sports - mainly football & rugby.
Main goals and objectives of the Club
We are a family based club with ages ranging from 5-65 - so the whole family can practise at the same time. The main aim of the club is to promote the sport of Judo for all ages, all levels of physical abilities, provide opportunities for fun, healthy recreation and competition for all. We promote the virtues of Judo e.g. discipline, mutual respect & hard work and rovide a safe, friendly and enjoyable environment for the practice of Judo. All people who attend are treated fairly and gain equal benefits regardless of race, age. gender, background or ability. Judo is a sport that has a holistic approach e.g. balancing the physical and mental aspects of the sport - not forgetting to allow fun to creep in.
