Today at the AEJF National Grading, three judoka took part and performed with good etiquette. Well done to junior James Hutton, who gained Green plus 1 blue tag. Our Two Seniors although demanding against heavier judoka did extremely well - Amal Martucci gaining his Senior Blue and Gregory Vincent gaining his Lower Brown.
