Our second club-hosted competition for 2026 is less than 2 weeks away. Please keepthe 18th October free on your calendar. Club Mons and U/11 Juniors should take advantage of the great opportunity that this event affords in being able to compete on home soil with a heap of Budokan coaches and supporters behind you at this event. Aninformation sheet is attached to the email which accompanies this Newsletter.

 The club supports our NSW State Team athletes to the Nationals and all our international representatives so it is important that these athletes and their families provide support to this competition. We will need our older Juniors, our Seniors and our parents to assist in the running of this event, for activities including: 
Set-up (on Saturday 17th October at 2.30pm during the Junior class), and  

 Competition day (18th October): front door entry, weigh-ins, first aid, match progression, scoring, timing, athlete marshalling, canteen, BBQ, and so on.  A sheet has been placed on the main table at the club where you can place your name indicating your willingness to help. Please add your name if you can help us. 

 Please talk to Rob if interested in any of the key jobs (weigh-in, draws, match-progression and results recording) and if unsure what to do – we can teach you.  

Please support your club and reserve the 17th(club set-up 2.30pm) and 18th October.
