2. This coming term see a number of exciting Judo competitions - to name a few; the London Judo International (11th Feb weekend), University of Sheffield International (26th Feb), and BUSA (Mar 18th weekend).

3. In particular, I want to bring to your attention a competion held in Tartu, Estonia (that's right) on May 19-21. It's a friendly individuals Judo competition, that is part of a set of other sports being played. I know its early to commit yourself now (exam dates and all that), but we just need an idea of the interest so if you are even remotely interested let me know before Tuesday. If the response is good we'll act on it and it'll be superb weekend! See www.sellstudentgames.com for more details.

* Remember that the union funds (or at least subsidises) all judo competition entry and transport expenses...so I'd really encourage you to take advantage of this and compete, even just for fun (you've nothing to lose).
