Ford Judo Club welcomes players of all standards to its dojo (or training hall). There are beginners' Judo classes for children aged from 5-10 years to introduce them to the fundamentals of judo. There is also an Intermediate/Advanced class aimed at children who want to learn more and to start progressing through the grading system denoted by coloured and banded belts. Judo is an ideal sport for all ages and the British Judo Association grading system is designed to ensure that the next goal is realistic and achievable with effort. It also ensures that all judo players can compete with contestants of a similar ability.
