This is the last call for MASTER Judoka (30 yrs +) wanting to join an expedition to Tokyo for the IJF World Masters contest in TOKYO, September 21-22, 2013.
A large contingent of University players (augmented by a contingent from Roto-vegas and Cambridge) are heading to Tokyo to compete. The main plan is to depart New Zealand on the 19th of September (flying out on Jetstar). Weigh in is the following day and then its Shiai on Saturday (individuals) and Sunday (teams).
The Shiai is structured by age and weight. The first division is the M1 (30-35yrs), then M2 (35-40yrs) and so on. At this stage New Zealand will also being entering two teams for Sunday (pending the recruitment of one or two appropriately gnarled Japanese Judo legends).
Following the contest the team/expeditionary force are free to make their own adventure(s). A small contingent has already indicated that they plan to attend the Sumo, explore Roppongi and possibly even get over to Chiba to go surfing (the water should be warm and there could be waves). Naturally, there will also be plenty of time to train at the Kodokan and make new friends at other clubs.
Interested parties should contact Rick Littlewood asap.
