Cameron McDowall has been the Y&H referee rep for the last 5 years.
If you've been to an area event in the last few years there's a good chance Cameron was the Referee in Charge keeping the referee teams under control!
Cameron has decided now is time to step down as the area referee rep while focusses on his development while working towards his referee A grade.
Anyone involved in refereeing understands the commitment required to achieve this goal, preparation, travel and attendance at national events, and we fully support Cameron in pursuing this ambition.
We wish Cameron all the best in his efforts working towards the National A referee badge and look forward to seeing more of him on the mats.
The Yorkshire & Humberside area entered 4 teams to the 2026 national teams event. There were no medals this year, the Cadet/Junior boys team were unlucky to lose out by 10 points on going through to the semi finals.
Here is the report from team manage, Caroline Brayson....
The ever popular North Yorkshire Festival on the 28th June was once again held at York.An event that year on year proves to be very popular with players of all ages from 8 years old.
In the region of 200 competitors took part in the event across 3 mats, doing their best to show off their judo skills.
We also saw presentions for young player of the year for 2025 & Mike Leng recognised for decades of voluntary service to area judo.
There were also referee assessments for a few of the volunteers in ties. Also happy to have a couple of people volunteer to work the scoreboards at an event for the first time.
