Good Evening,

All applications and cheques should be returned to:

Many Thanks.

Good Morning,

I would like to draw your attention to the attached application form, inviting any Judoka with a BJA Grade of 3rd Kyu or above to attend the London Area Junior & Senior Referee and Technical Competition Official Course, on Saturday 11^th December. The cost of the course is just £10.

With the BJA eager to develop an intra-London University Judo League, it is imperative that we increase the number of student table officials and referees, so we are no longer solely reliant upon the good-will of our existing volunteer workforce. It is my vision that each University will have a minimum of two qualified referees and table officials, to accommodate and sustain any prospective and formalised Wednesday afternoon competition, which I am hopeful to have launched by next academic year.

Would you therefore liaise with each of your respective club members, and recruit a minimum of 1-2 students of the required grade to attend the course, ensuring they are subsequently committed to offering their services as a referee. It would be preferable if the applicant were a first or second year student, with a view to utilising them prior to the end of their academic studies.

Should you have any further questions, then please do not hesitate to contact me at any time.

Kind Regards.
