Glaspalast 2024 International Judo Tournament, Sindelfingen, GERMANY

The Yorkshire & Humberside Area of the British Judo Association (Y & H) has endeavoured to provide its players the opportunity to compete abroad.

Y & H has organised trips to France (Rouen), Netherlands (Venray) and Germany (Sindelfingen) for many years and have been represented at the
Glaspalast International Judo Tournament since 2014 (except for 2021 due to Covid).

The 2024 Glaspalast International Judo Tournament is to held in Sindelfingen, Germany on 6-7 July 2024.

The Glaspalast International Judo Tournament is most suitable as the event caters for 6 age bands over the 2 days.

This year’s schedule is noted below:
Sat – FU13s, MU13s, FU18s, MU18s, SNR Women, SNR Men
Sun – FU11s, MU11s, FU15s, MU15s, MU21s, FU21s

The number of competitors over the weekend usually totals about 1,800 from many European nations – the level of competition for all age bands was equivalent to the ‘old’ British Open.

One of the main objectives of Y & H is to keep costs as low as possible. Y&H also recognises the contribution of parents and personal coaches to a player’s development and as such the Area contributes to the cost of Y & H Players and accompanying persons.

Other competitors and accompanying persons pay the full cost per person. The advantage of accompanying persons is additional supervision and support for the younger players.

Y & H contribution towards costs per person for 2024 is £60/person and costs are noted below:

Cost:
£420pp - Y & H competitor and parent/guardian/coach
£480pp – Other competitors and parent/guardian/coach, and additional Y & H parent/guardian/ sibling etc (depending on availability).

Y & H also pay competition entry fees for area players.

The costs for the trip include coach travel, cabin accommodation on the ferry, 3 night’s accommodation and breakfast in the Boblingen. All arranged by CAB – Travel, who have provided and continue to provide a superb service.

Chance to get 2 courses done in a day!
