Just over a week ago, we were proud to watch a number of our athletes get promoted into the Dan or black belt ranks at the NSW State Grading. Our 5 Budokan Black belt promotes are: Courtney Barks, Vanessa Hall, Jakob Edwards, Conor Edwards, and Liam Stewart. Courtney successfully completed her NiDan or 2nd degree black belt and our other 4 Budokan athletes completed their ShoDan or 1st degree black belts. This is a milestone in their Judo careers and we congratulate you!
