In 2007 British Judo took the necessary decision to deny Willesden Judo Club membership of the BJA as a club due to concerns over the infrastructure, systems and procedures at the club. 

As part of the enforcement of the sanctions the BJA was applying to the club at the time, we informed competition organisers of the clubs removal from the Association and requested that entries for events not be accepted from the club.

A new management team has taken over the running of the club.  This new team, made up of ex players from the club, have worked intensively and closely with the BJA London Development Team and during that period have completely rebuilt the club from the ground up. 

This work will continue as the club continues towards its development targets and works towards gaining Club Mark.  Willesden Judo Club 2011, as it wishes to be named, is now a club in development and are on the whole a club made up of junior novice players.

We are sure that the judo community will support the players and coaches as they build and improve their club.
