  • There will be 14 Japanese Hight School Students from Hokkaido taking part in the Winter Camp (8 male / 6 female)

The Judo Alberta HP Coach Committee will select athletes to participate. If an athlete has been identified by the coaches we are hoping they will represent athlete in the team competition. It will be a lot of fun. We will need to have volunteers for score keeping, draws, etc.
