We sent National teams to many tournaments around the world starting early in the year. Selection for the Australian Team to compete at the Oceania Championships held in Tahiti in April, was done after the ACT International Open. We sent a team of 58 competitors: 25 seniors, 18 juniors and 14 cadets. Australia as usual was the dominating force at this competition, winning AREMARKABLEGOLD SILVERANDBRONZEMEDALSINTHESENIORS GOLDSILVERANDBRONZEMEDALSINTHEJUNIORSAND GOLDSILVERANDBRONZEMEDALSINTHECADETS While the displays on the Judo mats were outstanding, the continued performance of the Oceania administration is just the OPPOSITE4HEEXISTENCEOF@FAKENATIONAL*UDOORGANISATIONSWITHIN/*5 WHICHONLYEXISTTOVOTETHEIR@FRIENDSONTOTHE %XECUTIVE CONTINUESTOBEAPROBLEM)NDEED ITCAMETOAHEADWHEN/CEANIAREPRESENTATIVESWEREPUBLICALLYEMBARRASSEDBY the IJF president at the Congress in Paris. Unless there is real reform at the OJU level, the OJU countries will not be the recipients of any favours from the IJF and the IJF will continue to treat us with disdain. As you all know Australia has three approved, E grade local competitions, ACT, QLD and NSW and 2 F grade events, VIOC and SA. The total players who featured on the drawsheets this year, in seniors, juniors, boys/girls, veterans and special needs were from the ACT 362, QLD 319, NSW 288, VIOC 75 and SA 83. As you can see from this the Victorian event which this year had better numbers that 2010, has fallen on hard times. It was the top event in Australia. I understand that Judo Victoria has taken this event under its arm to try and restore it to its former position. I comment Judo Victoria for this action and urge all States to encourage their registered players to support our local International competitions. In June, the Nationals were held in Western Australia. Congratulations, WA Judo for the organisation of the event and for getting a large number of WA competitors to swell the ranks, to a position where there were more competitors in the juniors, cadets, boys and girls than there were in Brisbane the year before. The competition was at its usual high standard and this year saw WA use their initiative by having the competition streamed directly on the Internet. As we do not get local TV coverage, this is a great development and one that can only improve the visibility of our sport. Special congratulations should go to Gavin Kelly (NSW) who at these championships added his 12th National Senior Titles to his name. )N!UGUST !USTRALIANJUDOKAATTENDEDTHESECOND7ORLD#ADET#HAMPIONSHIPSIN+IEV 5KRAINE)TWASTHElRSTTIMETHATAN Australian Cadet team had entered the competition and although we were unsuccessful in gaining any medals, Karen Da Silva lNISHEDEQUALSEVENTHANDTHETEAMMANAGEDTOWINANUMBEROFlRSTROUNDlGHTS THEEXPERIENCEGAINEDBYTHEPLAYERSWILLBE invaluable for their future as judo players. The Senior World Championships were held in Paris, France in August, in conjunction with the IJF Congress. The level of competition was truly remarkable in what was the last senior world championship before the 2012 Olympics. Australia sent a team of 14 competitors. At the congress preceding the championships, it was very pleasing to see Peter Herrmann and John Deacon presented with special awards for their service to Judo in Australia by the IJF, and I received an award on behalf of Alan Broadhead. Well done, and congratulations! In November 13 competitors represented Australia at the IJF Junior Worlds in Cape Town, South Africa, where Kim Jolly got a WELL DESERVEDTHPLACE4HERUNNINGOFTHISEVENTWHICHWASlNANCIALLYSUPPORTEDBYTHE3OUTH!FRICAN'OVERNMENT SHOWS THATWEWOULDBEABLETORUNAVERYCREDITABLEEVENT IFWEHAVETHElNANCIALBACKING4HEREWERECOMPETITORSANDOVER OFlCIALSFROMCOUNTRIESINATTENDANCE 4HElNALEVENTOFTHEYEARWASTHEWORLDCUPIN3AMOA WHERE!USTRALIAHADCOMPETITORSWEWEREABLETOWINMEDALS 4WOSILVER #ARLI2ENZIAND)VO$OS3ANTOSANDONEBRONZE !RNIE$ICKENS4HISWASAVERYSTRONGCOMPETITION #OUNTRIES ANDREPRESENTATIVES-ANYPLAYERSWERECOMPETINGFOR/LYMPICPOINTSENSURINGAHIGHQUALITYCOMPETITION)NVIEWOFTHIS Australia’s results were very gratifying.
