By the end of December 2011, membership numbers have risen nearly 7% on 2010. This continued improvement has shown the determination to move Judo in Ireland forward & enforce the IJA policy of ‘No Licence – No Insurance – No Judo’. The IJA has listed the top five clubs
from last year for membership, why not give one of the clubs a call to see if they can offer any top tips on bringing memberships into
clubs and the IJA. The Association also welcomed more new clubs including schools clubs in 2011.

Last years top 5 membership clubs were:

1. Kerry School of Judo (Kerry)
2. Samurai Uladh Judo Club (Derry/Donegal)
3. Ren Bu Kan Judo Club(Tyrone)
4. Muskerry Judo Club (Cork)
5. Oranmore Judo Club (Galway)
