October Maldon District Council presented a number of local people with various awards, it again is with great pleasure to announce the Blackwater Judo Club [Maldon] was awarded 2-awards.
- Best Innovative scheme 2008 for the way we run the club within and for the community and
- A personal award to me as the ‘Unsung Hero’ for ‘I don’t really know as I was on holiday and didn’t hear the nomination, but believe it to be based on my dedication to Judo, the students and charity.
However I must stress that although this award was to me, if it wasn’t for the Instructors, volunteer Judokas and committed parents the club would not be as successful as it has become and I hope it will continue in its success for many years to come.
