Second Generation Judoka


On Saturday 7th May 1988 members of Bushido Judo Kwai travelled to London to take part in the British Judo Council (M.A.C) National Judo Championships, which were held at the Latchmere Leisure Centre, Battersea SW11.
The above photo shows five members of our junior squad, they are left to right, Chris Woods, Steve Beck, Steve Ellerby, Elliott Makin and Steve Compton.
On Friday 14th September 2007 Steve Beck brought his young son David to join our club, David has done well since then, most recently on June 20th 2010 he won promotion to 3rd kyu (san, brown) and on July 17th 2010 David won a bronze medal at the Westgate Judo Club, Grade Tournament in Newcastle upon Tyne when he produced one of the most spectacular techniques of the day.
David is the only second generation member that we have.

Steve Ellerby would win promotion to Shodan in 1997 and Steve Compton in 2000
