Hi all, Please see the message below from our ACC Chair. Positions are up for grabs for next year's ACC committee, and anyone from any club can run, even if you're not in a committee position at the moment. Full training will be provided, so don't be put off if you haven't done anything like this before! This is your chance to make a difference for all the clubs and societies, not just judo! On a judo-related note, please can everyone remember there is NO TRAINING THIS FRIDAY!!!
