Easter break has been great but the tatami is calling and we are ready.
Ladies — your sessions return next week, get excited! 🙌
See you out there tonight. 🙏
Massive well done to our Monday juniors who absolutely smashed their gradings tonight. 👏🥋
Proud of the effort, attitude and progress they’re showing on their judo journey. It’s great to see their hard work paying off and their confidence continuing to grow on the mat.
Exciting to see them taking these next steps and pushing forward. Keep it going! 💪

Every step is progress. 🙌
A lot of hard work has gone into grading prep, and last night that showed. People stepped up and absolutely smashed it.
As coaches, we love seeing that kind of effort and attitude on the mat. 👊
Gradings will continue over the coming sessions, and we’re looking forward to seeing plenty of new belts and grades across the club.

Out the comfort zone. In the mix.
Beanie getting rounds in with the VI Squad (visually impaired) in Walsall, while Seb, Alicia and Lucas put the work in at Ryecroft for Midlands area training.
Different environments,
Different challenges,
Same mindset.
Show up, learn, get better.
Thanks to Ryecroft for hosting and the coaches involved across the weekend.

Happy World Down Syndrome Day 💙💛
At Cherry Judo, inclusion isn’t a slogan — it’s what we do.
Georgie is one of our black belts. She also has Down syndrome — just part of who she is, not what defines her..
She’s earned it the same way everyone else does — through effort, resilience, and turning up week after week.
That’s the standard. That’s the culture.
Our adaptive judo sessions run every Thursday 17:15–18:15 —
a supportive environment where people build confidence, develop skills, and enjoy being part of something.
Judo is for everyone.
💙💛
🇬🇧 ❤️
👊Started somewhere.
💪Still learning.
🥋Still improving.
🕙That’s all this is — turning up and putting the time in.
🔥Good people, good energy, getting better together.
👨👩👧👦If you’ve been thinking about giving it a go, you’ll fit right in.

A Midlands Area Training – Yellow Belts+ (10–16)
Good opportunity to train with players from across the Midlands and experience something different to your usual sessions.
📍 ryecroft judo club, Nottingham
⏰ 10:00–12:30
A great way to build confidence, improve, and step things up.
Let me know if you’re planning to go — would be good to get a Cherry group there.
We are looking forward to our first Midland Area Squad Training that's taking place in just a few weeks time!
Judoka from across the region who fulfil the criteria are all welcome to join this session that will consist of both technical instruction and randori.
🔹 Minimum grade yellow belt
🔹 Ages 10 to 16 (minors, pre-cadets and cadets)
🔹 Ryecroft Judo Club, Nottingham NG9 1GL
🔹 10am to 12.30
The emphasis on these sessions is to give our players the opportunity to train together and feel they are taking a step up the ladder from club judo.
The Midland Area Open Randori will continue to take place at Walsall (next session April 19th)
These sessions will not be forming part of the selection process for the Midland Area teams for the National Team Championships taking place in July. Bill Kelly, the area team manager, will continue to manage the team selection process using competition results, ranking positions and input from club coaches.
At the end of the year there will be an opportunity for everyone to share their views and consider how we move forward into 2027, and use your feedback to adjust the format if needed.
If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask... either by DM or email to [email protected]
We hope to see you and your players at Ryecroft JC on 22nd March......
if not, at Yamato JA on 17th May!

Through thick and thin, your love has been the anchor behind every young judoka standing tall today.
From all of us, thank you for everything you do.
Happy Mother’s Day. ❤️🥋
