Bedford Judo Club Dan Grading

Another Senior grading and two more players from the club accelerated their cause with promotions into and within the black belt system.

Joe Dowling furthering his cause towards his 2nd Dan, achieved another 10 points.

Steven Bentham despatching 2 players with a formidable Sangaku Gatame and going on to achieve his required wins to promote to 1st Dan.

'Paddy' Dowling - Has promoted from 4th Kyu to 1st Dan since February this Year, 'Paddy' has shown his worth with gaining a tremendous achievement by completing his line-up with apparent ease to promote to 2nd Dan (Subject to theory exam).

Our Club player of the day however by unanimous vote from all Senior club members in attendance was Danny Mulhall. This was Dannys 1st Senior Grading. Although being the youngest and lightest player at the grading, attending as a Junior Blue belt, he left as a Senior 2nd Kyu. With Devastating form he sent his opponents for an 'early bath'.

Congratulations fellas.

March & April '05

Bedford Judo Club Dan Grading

In the space of 7 weeks during February, March & April 2005 two more players from the club accelerated their cause with promotions into the black belt system.

On 12 March '05 Paddy Dowling, Craig Antink & Joe Dowling travelled to the Bedford Club Dan Grading.

Having only just proved his high standards of achievement at last months Midland Area Senior Grading at Walsall, Paddy showed them all at Bedford what ability he has. He achieved a maximum score of 5 wins from 5 contests and a 100% maximum points score to achieve his contest wins for his black belt. This achievement became more special to “Paddy” as he was a blue belt in mid February this year.

Joe scored 2 wins and 17pts towards his 2nd Dan. Craig totted up another 10pts to point him towards his 1st Dan.

Midland Area Combined Dan Grading

On 3 April '05 Paddy Dowling, Craig Antink, Steven Bentham, Luke Bradley, Peter Waitland & Joe Dowling travelled to the Midland Area Combined Dan Grading.

It was the turn of Craig Antink to show a clean pair of heels to everyone else this time. Craig completed his Line-up for his promotion to 1st Dan with both confidence and style. Despatched is probably the best way to describe his 100% contest wins results.

Further Points accumulating towards their Dan grades were also recorded by Peter Waitland, Luke Bradley, Joe Dowling & Steven Bentham.

Congratulations fellas.

Midland Area Senior Grading at Walsall

On Sunday 13th February 2005 Six of our senior players attended the Midland Area combined grading at Walsall judo centre at the Walsall University campus.

It proved to be a happy learning curve for most. All 6 players gave a very good account of themselves. As can be seen by the results table below, important grades and Black belt promotion points were achieved in exchange for plenty of sweat.

Congratulations to Paul Clode for his looooong wait for his promotion change to a new colour. Blue is his colour of the month.

Paddy Dowling dispatched all in his path, with a formidable display to remain unbeaten in his contests, to achieve his 1st Kyu Brown Belt. So yet another player joins our happy throng of club members vying for their coveted black belt.

Steven Bentham overcame his nervous start, to achieve his 1st attempt at a black belt line-up. Whilst not achieving his goal of a 100% result in his contests, a welcome 20 points was added to his points card.

The move up to 1st Dan Black belt hasn’t dampened the efforts of Joe Dowling or Luke Bradley. They proved to be well capable at their Black belt status, with more points added to their running totals.

Success obviously breeds success. Well Done Fellas.
