Congratulations to everyone that took part today.

It was great to see everyone showing how well they’ve done, and those new belts are well deserved!

Happy new year!

An experiment with Twitter

David — Sat, 26 Sep 2009 14:06:41 +0000

Does anyone useTwitter?

In keeping with my habit of adopting these things about 12 months after everyone else, I’ve decided to go ahead and create a Titan Judo account on Twitter – here

Ok, I’ll freely admit to being not entirely sure what to do with it, but it might be fun. It’s free anyway.

So, if you are right up to date with your internet trends and already use Twitter, start following titanjudo and we’ll see what we can do with it.

Titan Judo Camp 2009

David — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 14:02:50 +0000

Paul has put together a two day judo event in Clydebank on the 6th and 7th of August. It’s aimed at youths and seniors and is more about hard work. There are six scheduled sessions, three purely randori and three will be taken by John Buchanan, Graeme Randall and Tony Penfold.

The camp is priced at only £25 which is snip when you look at who you are getting, so please try and get the first Titan Camp off to a flyer and support it. It is situated nicely a few weeks before some big tournaments so if we get the numbers then it will be great training for all who attend. Remember we’re all trying to encourage more club players to get involved so please encourage them to book as well as any performance players who may be interested.

If you need more info please don’t hesitate to get back in touch, contact details are on the registration form.

Junior grading – December 2008

Congratulations to everyone who graded.

There were some great performances and those new belts were well earned.

Gary Clarkson has sent me copies of the 2 group photos he took of the class. He has high resolution copies of these, if anyone wants one.

New Titan Library

Paul — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 11:49:15 +0000

Check out the new Library with all of the masterclass books and some others to add. Hopefully starting with around 20 books. The more people borrow the books the bigger the library can be.

The books should help your judo knowledge grow just as long as you turn up to class to try your new moves out

Scottish Age bands 2008

Paul — Thu, 18 Sep 2008 08:56:20 +0000

Well done to Darren, Stefan & Nathan who all fought extremely well at the Scottish Age Band Championships. They competed in the -42kg, -55kg & -38kg categories. Against some tough opposition the boys performed well by attacking and fighting like champions. The star of the day was Nathan, winning all of his contests by ippon in record time. He eventually lost to get a place in the final by a more experienced player from Aberdeen but shook off the defeat to go on and win his Bronze medal fight in all of 5 seconds.

Well done to all and congratulations to Nathan on the Scottish Bronze medal.

New schedule

David — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 21:11:41 +0000

Now that Summer (what Summer?) is nearly over, we’ve changed our timetable of classes back to something like normal.

Make sure to have a look so you know when we’re on.

June 2008 Grading

David — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 16:55:37 +0000

Well done to everyone who sat their grading last week. Everyone’s promotion was well deserved.

Gary Clarkson took quite a few photos of the grading contests, which I’ve uploaded to our Flickr gallery, but heres a few of them.

More competition success

David — Thu, 03 Apr 2008 19:04:03 +0000

Good news from the Grangemouth open – Marc Boyd, in his first ever competition, fought in the under 16, under 60kg category and managed to bring home a third place.

Not bad going for the youngest (13) and smallest competitor in the category.

Well done!
