Yet another award was picked up by the club last night when Eric Ham was presented with a Derbyshire Young Achiever Award at a glitzy ceremony in Matlock. At a special 'oscar style' ceremony, hosted by Derbyshire County Council, Eric was presented his award by Television Presenter Gareth Jones. Over 65 young people from all over Derbyshire were presented with awards for a wide range of personal and sporting acheivements. Awards were presented not only for sporting excellence, but for children who have shown amazing courage and bravery, many of whom suffer from serious illnesses. This award adds to Eric's 2007 High Peak Junior Sportsman of The Year Award.

Over 40 of our young primary mat fighters took part in our 2009 club championships. For many of the young children this was their first taste of competition and there were many fine displays of judo throughout the event. Boy player of the day went to Alex Alderdice with the girls award going to Ella Vincent. Dylan Sanderson was presented with a special award for outstanding judo. Dillon saw off much more experienced fighters in his group to take the Gold Medal. Certainly one to watch out for in the future.

Photographs will be available soon.
