Are you the owner of Gloucestershire County Judo?
Peter Salter invites all sports enthusiasts to join Gloucestershire County Judo, located in Gloucester. As a proud member of the British Judo Association (BJA), participants can trust the high standards and quality assured by this affiliation.
The county's judo clubs offer newcomers an exciting chance to try out Judo, with the first session often free. This gives potential members a risk-free opportunity to experience the training and camaraderie. Details about these clubs can be found on the Gloucestershire County Judo website.
Member privacy is paramount for Pete and his team. You can reach Pete via the contact details listed on the website—whether by phone, email, or post—for any questions regarding the clubs or county squads.
The operational side of the school is managed by a dedicated committee. This team, including Peter Salter as Chairman and County Coach, meets annually to review finances and activities, with committee members re-elected each year. The committee also features Vice Chairman Malcolm Reed, Secretary Bryan Butler, Treasurer Chris Salter, and several Squad Coaches and Members.
Since formalising in the mid-70s, with significant contributions from Brian Calway of Gloucester YMCA Judo Club, the committee has upheld a strong organisational structure. Peter Salter’s longstanding leadership, alongside Chris Salter’s consistent support, ensures smooth operations and a host of organised events.
Despite its size, Gloucestershire County Judo holds a prestigious place within the Judo community, hosting noteworthy competitions like the Western Area Open in Gloucester and the Gloucestershire Open in Newent since 2009. Peter Salter encourages anyone interested in contributing to the committee to reach out for a rewarding experience in supporting and growing the sport.
