Titan Judo

Titan Scottish Silver

Competition season has started well with three of our players fighting in the Scottish Mini Mon championships.on the 8th of May.

Roland Smyth, Lewis Christie and Summer Cranney all took part in this years event which would have been their first judo tournament. All three did the club proud with some fantastic fighting and gritty performances. Roland started off the day with an excellent win by Ippon but unfortunately Lewis got caught cold early in the fight. Both of the boys fought well and came away with some valuable competitive experience and their heads held high. In the afternoon Summer started her first tournament well by winning her fights mostly by Ippon all the way to the final. Her performance in the final was fantastic and up against a more experienced player pushed her opponent to a golden score situation. Summer nearly had the gold as she had her opponent in a hold twice but she had managed to escape. It came to a referee decision and this time it went the other way. Summer came away with the silver, not bad for the first attempt.

On the 9th we held a club competiton which provided the crowds with some fantastic judo. Players from all of our classes from Tiny Titans up competed in some hard fought battles.

Well done to all who fought and keep up the hard work for the grading in June. Above is a picture of the medallists from the club competition.
