It's always sad to hear of judo clubs closing their doors and if what I hear is true then the N-E of Scotland has lost yet another judo club in the demise of Montrose Shogun, a club my own Sensei helped establish over 25 years ago, a great shame and another example of how judo has sufferred in these parts at the hands of JudoScotland.

I would like to take this opportunity to welcome any Montrose judoka to Mudanshakwai Brechin, we hold our training on Wednesday evening and anyone requiring further details can PM me or get details from our website www.brechinjudoclub.webs.com. Our club is a member of the BJC having left JudoScotland 2 years ago, a move which has seen our club go from strength to strength we do, of course, welcome members of all recognised judo governing bodies with an up to date license.

Hope to see you there.

Always a shame when a club has to close it's doors. Even in my short time in judo I have seen how difficult it is for clubs to maintain numbers. All you can do is try to support your local club but it can be tough.

Hopefully the existing memebrs take up your offer as judo needs all the participants it can get.

Why bring politics into judo. Why don't you welcome all judo players, not just from governing bodies with up to date licenses. You might be surprised at the judo from other clubs.

I believe the issue is one of visitors having valid insurance rather than one of politics.

I train occasionally at weejock's dojo but wouldn't feel comfortable fighting anyone without insurance.
