Junior Jiu Jitsu Atemi Nationals

Once again we have been invited by our friends in the Jitsu Foundation to send a team to the British Junior Jiu Jitsu Championships on Saturday 20th October 2018.  This year the competition will take place in the Pheonix Sports and Leisure Centre in Telford. We will be taking as many competitors as we can. At these Atemi Nationals competitors are scored on their Jiu Jitsu skills by a panel of judges rather than fighting against each other so age, size and weight is not an advantage.

 

Entry to the course and competition – £20 (£15 if more than one member of the same family attending)

 

Transport –We’ll be leaving from outside the Londis in St Athan at 7.30 am and getting back at about 7.30 pm. As always I’m hoping that we can arrange lifts with parents who are coming to watch and share the cost. This is the only way we can ensure that everybody who wants to go gets the opportunity.

 

If you would like to come to the British Junior Atemi Jiu Jitsu Championships you will need to get your parent/guardian to fill out the confirmation slip available on the downloads page and a £5 deposit (cash or cheque made out to the Junior Jitsu Foundation) and return it to me no later than Friday 13th October.  If you are able to provide a lift please could you let me know.  If you’ve got any questions about the British Championships ask me or Louise at the next club session, ring me on 07779041908 or email me at adam.jenkins@stathanjitsu.co.uk
