LOOKING FOR A SPORT THAT GIVES YOUR CHILD MORE THAN JUST EXERCISE?

Why not give them JUDO? 🥋

Judo is a fantastic sport for building confidence, discipline, fitness, focus and resilience — while making friends and having fun along the way.

It teaches children how to challenge themselves, overcome setbacks and respect others. Skills that extend far beyond the judo mat. 💪

And it’s not just any sport…

🏅 Judo is an Olympic sport
🏅 A Commonwealth Games sport
🥋 A sport for life
🤝 Friendship beyond the mat

At Aboyne Judo Club, we welcome children from 6.5 years upwards, whether they’re completely new to judo or looking to develop their skills further.

📍 Aboyne Community Centre
📅 Every Monday night
👊 Come along, give it a try and discover what you’re capable of!

Don’t just watch from the sidelines — get on the mat!

Yesterday 2 of our team were fighting in the Highland Budokan Competition in Inverness as part of the JudoScotland Grand Prix circuit.

Both fought very well in their categories.

🥉Kara won bronze

Ivan fought really well in a tough category, missing out this time.

Both continue to work hard and learn what they are being taught and are a credit to us 🥋

Well done both of you, you are both champions in our eyes 🏆
