Huge congratulations to Tom, Nicholas, and Jacob, who traveled up to the Gold Coast over the weekend to compete in the Australian National Judo Championships!
These three men show up week after week, session after session, putting in grueling efforts. All that relentless hard work paid off on the national stage with some absolutely fantastic results in huge divisions!
👏 Tom Cramp - 5th Place!
🥉 Nicholas Casey – Bronze Medal!
🥉 Jacob Casey - Bronze Medal!
An achievement like this takes a village, massive shoutout to Shorty (Andrew Fairhall) for being mat-side all weekend, guiding our men through every tough match. Also to Ben Cramp and all the Ni Bonchi coaches as well as the Judo ACT State coaches. Thank you for your invaluable help and dedication in preparing the men for this tournament.
The whole club is incredibly proud of your grit, determination and sportsmanship!

Ni Bonchi will be having an open mat session this Saturday from 1130 until 1 for any registered player who wants to come and get some additional training in coming up to nationals. No mat fees for anyone as the club will cover venue costs with the school. All mats will be out so plenty of room for everyone. Hope to see you there.
Cheers
Shorty
