Metro Judo Club
Who are we?
• Metro Judo club is one of the top sports clubs in the borough of Royal Greenwich, founded in 1977.
• It is completely ran by volunteers.
• Our dream at the club is to make Judo more accessible to young people with special needs/disabilities.
• On our mainstream training nights, we feel we are not able to accommodate special needs/disabled children as well as we could by holding tailored sessions on the weekends, therefore have set up these sessions.
• The coaching team for these sessions is made up of coaches and volunteers from four Judo Clubs. All have received training and are supported by Access Sport and Greenwich
