The club has received mixed feedback, with some families expressing disappointment over a recent grading decision.
A long-term member’s granddaughter, after eight years of attendance, was reportedly refused the chance to complete her grading when she announced plans to leave, which upset the family.
Some visiting judo instructors have praised the quality of the mats and the welcoming atmosphere for experienced practitioners.
However, concerns have been raised about the environment for younger children, with one parent reporting their six-year-old was left in tears after a coach shouted at them.
The hall space is noted as small and crowded, with limited seating affecting some families’ experiences.
Despite these issues, there are strong positive remarks about the coaching quality and the friendly, supportive nature of the club’s members and volunteers.
