A few behind-the-scenes moments from our Tiny Warriors Sho Grades competition from last Saturday 🥋

For many of the young Judokas on the mat, this was their very first competition. Stepping onto the tatami for the first time takes courage, and every single one of them showed determination and fighting spirit.

A special mention goes to our trainee referee squad – Dina, Luca, Roberta, and Patrik.
They arrived early to help prepare the dojo, controlled almost the entire competition, refereed the matches, and then stayed afterwards for their own training. That level of commitment does not go unnoticed – thank you.

We would also like to thank all parents and visiting clubs who joined us. Your understanding, sportsmanship, and support helped create a great atmosphere for the players on the mat. We truly couldn’t imagine it any other way.

Another great day of learning and experience for our Tiny Warriors. Onto the next one!

Tiny competition for tiny warriors! 🥋

Thank you to everyone who came along today and showed bravery, determination, and a true fighting spirit.

For many of the Judokas competing today, it was their very first time stepping onto the competition mats. Every single player - both from our club and visiting clubs - did absolutely amazing.

A big thank you to the coaches and parents who visited us and showed great respect and understanding throughout the day.

Special shout-out to our trainee referees squad: Dima, Luca, Roberta, and Patrik. They helped with the setup, controlled 99% of the contests independently, learned a lot along the way, and then continued with their usual training afterwards!

Once again, huge congratulations to all U8 players who stepped onto the tatami today, learned the contest rules quickly, and kept going even when the fights were tough. That’s true sportsmanship and the spirit of real warriors.

Onto the next one! 🥋🏆
