Olympic Judo - Day Five! 🥋🥋🥋🥋🥋
Neil Adams on WHO to look out for in the u70kgs and u90kgs. Who is leading the medal table? Do you think that will change after today's competition? WHAT'S YOUR prediction?
Day 5 of Olympic judo and it’s the turn of the u70kgs and the u90kgs - who will be the crowned the 2024 Olympic Champions?
Each day, this week I’ll be sending you two amazing resources to help you get the most out of the Olympic Judo week:
First, we have none other than Neil Adams (the Voice of Judo, Double Olympic silver medallist and 9th Dan) with his PREVIEW on WHO to watch out for in today’s weight division and WHAT techniques to look out for. Sign up here to get Neil Adams Olympic Previews sent to you directly.
Also, to help get the kids at the club engaged and inspired by the judo in Paris, I am sending you each day a page of the Koka Kids Olympic Booklet. There is space to record today’s medal winners and a question to prompt the conversation about today’s judo. Get the booklet here or scroll down for today’s question…

And here’s today print out from Koka Kids to use with your club members
Let us know if you have any Olympic themed events going on at your club.
On each page you’ll find space to keep a record of today’s Olympic Judo medal winners.
And each day there’s a question to answer, and get the judo conversations rolling.
TODAY’S QUESTION:
If you could pick the judo from just one competitor and have it implanted magically into your body - who’s would it be and why?
Let us know in the comments below. Everybody is welcome to comment but remember Jigoro is watching! Please be mindful of your comments.
