Two of Essex’s top sports
clubs, Wickford Judo RYU and Chelmsford Judo Club, have announced
that they will merge with immediate effect.
The newly-created Chelmsford
and Wickord Judo RYU will boast some highly-distinguished names
as 1972 Olympic silver medallist and 9th Dan Dave Starbrook.
Gary Diebelius, a noted
5th Dan, will run the club with support from Terry Adams and Ray
Neenan, who both hold a 6th Dan. John McCarthy, a 4th Dan, completes
the impressive club roster.
Gary Diebelius said: “We’re
delighted to announce the merger and bring together two strong
talent pools. The area has always had a good reputation when it
comes to judo and I’m sure we can continue to develop talent as
well as offer something for those who are looking to try something
different and reap the fitness benefits of the sport.
“Everyone is more than
welcome to come along and try one of our sessions; we have an
open door policy and people of all ages and abilities.”
On a Tuesday (20:00 – 21:45)
seniors will train at Anglia Ruskin Community College, Chelmsford,
