The Judo Alberta Elite Funding will be sent to the athlete’s home judo clubs or applied to the trip/event they participated in, not directly to the athletes.
Sincerely, Judo Alberta High Performance Committee
Judo Alberta is excited to announce the Canada Winter Games Funding Program for the Summer of 2026. The Canada Winter Games is coming quickly and the summer of 2026 needs to be used to level up. The trails for the 2027 Alberta Canada Winter Games will be in September 2026.
Judo Alberta recommends that clubs have a budget to help with the funding of your Canada Winter Games athletes for the summer of 2026.
Judo Alberta can make modifications to the CWG Summer Programs as details/information/final costs are finalized. (We do not have all of the information/technical packages/flight cost/etc, for the summer of 2026 at this time. )
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you have athletes born in the 2009 to 2012, they need to have start to compete at Judo Canada Events. Judo Alberta will ONLY be looking at the advanced divisions results for the Summer Funding criteria and the 2027 Canada Winter Games Selection Criteria. Athletes need to compete and score points against athletes that they will compete against at the 2027 CWG. (Novice / Intermediate U16/U18 results / divisions will not be considered)
Montreal Tour $400.00 x 14 athletes; Approx. event cost $1,200.00 to $1,400.00
Sask Camp: $150.00 x 14; athletes; Approx. event cost $400.00
International Event: $900.00 x 14 athletes; Approx. event cost $2,800 to $3,200.00 (Europe)
To receive Judo Alberta CWG funding athletes are expected to attend two of the three training camps. If possible, Judo Alberta would like athletes to attend all three June/July training camps.
Minimum requirements for self-funded athletes 2 x U16 Gold medalist at Canadian Tour Events or U18 Gold in the 2025/2026 Canadian Tour Events/Season.
Funding Protocol: Judo Alberta use the below chart to identify the top 7 male and top 7 female athletes across all weight divisions. It is possible to have multiple athletes from the same weight division selected. Funding will go to the next person inline if athletes turn down their selection

Kata Tuesdays: In-person and online weekly sessions were held in October, November and January. Videos of these session can be found on the JA website.
Resources to support and develop kata teams: Funding to reimburse kata entry fees for A or B events (max 2 kata per event) and training videos are available. Clubs just need to let the Provincial Kata Committee (email: gyokamura@gmail.com) know of their kata teams (open to all ages but does not include kodomo no kata).
Kata at EYJS Monthly Tournaments: Kata teams of any rank and any age have the opportunity to demonstrate kata at the Monthly Tournament. This is a great opportunity in a low-pressure setting. After the demonstration, judges provide teams with feedback. Gift cards totalling $50 will be drawn again among the registered team at the EYJS February Monthly. The January winners were David Wu and Alex Gagnon. The February winners were Kalysta Pratch and Finn MacDonald.
Resources to support kata judges: Funding support (for clinic fees) will be provided to any Alberta kata judge who becomes successfully certified. Videos are available to study beforehand. Congratulations to Franz Lennarson and Tammy Thornton who were certified in Goshin Jutsu in October.
