New Website and News Letters

We will still have a supply of future News Letters available, but hope to reduce costs to the club and save paper by asking that if you have internet access that you send an email to newsletter@kobushijudo.co.uk, so that we can email you when future News Letters are posted on the website.

Membership Details

We are aware that most members will have completed a Club Membership Form in the past.  We need to ensure that our records are up to date, so will again be asking all members to complete a new form.  Any member who has not returned a completed membership form by the end of October 2008 will not be allowed on the mat until they have done so.  Click on PDF logo to download a copy.
