The club is one of the oldest clubs in Scotland and over the years its members have played an important part in developing Judo throughout Scotland and the UK.  The Club is often referred by other as the sleeping giant of Scottish Judo.  This is due to the number of international players and officials that we produced during the clubs early years.
