We're incredibly proud of Harry and Alexis, who represented Queensland at the Judo AustraliaNational Championships on the Gold Coast over the weekend.
A huge congratulations to our 10 Townsville Judo Club competitors who represented the club so well at the Innisfail competition over the weekend of 23–24 May, 2026.
Our team came home with an incredible 7 gold, 8 silver and 2 bronze medals - a fantastic result that reflects the hard work and commitment everyone has been putting into their training.
Townsville Judo brought home 10 gold medals at the NQ Regional 2 judo competition in Cairns, competing against clubs from across North Queensland.
The kids had an absolute blast turning the tables and showing their parents a thing or two on the mats! Plenty of laughs, a few surprise throws and lots of great memories to wrap up the term.

A huge shoutout to the brilliant kids and dedicated coaches who made the first two junior classes fantastic - see the photos!
"Townsville Judo is an exceptional club. My boys have consistently received high-quality instruction and mentoring from the coaching staff that has developed both their technical proficiency and their character. They have been encouraged and supported through multiple competitions by the coaches who tailor their approach to the age and needs of each athlete.
The administration and management of the club is without peer and Megan has been an absolute pleasure to interface with. I highly recommend Townsville Judo."
