JUDO IN APPLETON

• 6:30 to 7:30 is a session for more advanced exponents of the art
There is a charge for the sessions and those interested should contact Maureen Lambert for further information. All children are graded and there are examinations every three months. Split into Junior and senior sections there are Red, Yellow, Orange, Green, Blue and Brown in each age section. A Black Belt can only be achieved for someone over the age of 16. Each participant is given a Judo Licence record book and this document records grading information for each person. Appleton Judo is affiliated to the British Judo Association.
