Incredible Team Ontario

The dust has finally settled after what has been an incredible week for Judo Ontario!


Participating at our first national championships in several years, Judo Ontario had 109 athletes competing in Kata, Newaza & Shiai in addition to the 3 Kata Judges and the 2 referees who were selected by Judo Canada to officiate at these championships.



Our provincial athletes did not waste any time when they stepped back on the competition tatami. Ontario judoka earned medals in every age division and discipline over the four days of competition, finishing second overall in the provincial standings with 65 medals in total.


Congratulations to all!
