| Based in the village of Easton, about 5 miles west of Norwich, Easton Judo Club was established in April 2001. During this time members have entered events at regional, national and international levels, with medals won at all three. The club is mainly made up of junior members with a number of parent helpers behind the secnes. However, we are always looking for new senior members to expand this area of the club. |
| |
| The club is based at Easton College Sports Centre and we meet up weekly on Friday evenings. Visitors are always welcome (at the discretion of the coach), although members shall be given preference due to limited space. All levels are able to attend from beginner up to the higher grades. |

Chris Abel made it 3 out of 3 at the weekend after winning another Gold in the Under 73Kg category of the B.J.C. (M.A.C.) Eastern Region Open Championships.
Once again, Charles Swabey was also there for the club. In his group of the Under Yellow belts Charles improved on previous performances and achieved his first Gold of the year.
In addition, Sophie Butler joined the usual two. As the lowest grade in her category, the Under 44Kg, it was going to be hard. None the less, she battled through and was rewarded with a Silver. |

Our Head Coach, Chris Abel, retained his title in the under 73Kg category at the B.J.C. (M.A.C.) Anglia Open Championships this weekend. In his first contest, after gaining one of each of the minor scores, he eventually threw his opponent for the full Ippon (10 point) score. His second contest was a bit tougher, going to the time limit, winning with a Yoko (5 point) score. Following this was a quick contest won with a strangle. He then finished off the pool round with an Ippon, qualifying for the next round as the pool winner. Chris then made quick work of his semi-final opponent with another strangle, setting up a final with an old rival. After an early Koka (3 point) score he managed to hold off the attacks going to the full time again to win gold.
Also in attendance from the club was Charles Swabey, who, in his group of the Under Yellow Belts section won a Silver. After a few attacks, he was unfortunately thrown and lost his first contest. Not letting this get to him, he kept going and won the following two. His final opponent had also won 2 and lost 1, meaning the winner would gain the silver. After getting him to the floor, Charles quickly moved to get the hold, keeping there for the required 20 seconds for the win to get Silver. |
