The Bushido Judo Kwai was founded on May 3rd 1976.
Founder Members were, Chris Dawson 1st Dan, Mick Giles 1st Dan, Bob Patterson 1st Kyu,
Steve Milsted 3rd Kyu, Linda Dawson 5th Kyu, Terry Branighan 5th Kyu, Trevor Ferry 5th Kyu, Stella Cairns 6th Kyu and Paul Naisbit 1st Kyu (Junior).
The photo above has Steve Milsted and Chris Dawson in 2012, Steve who now lives in Australia was on a visit to Wallsend, to see his mam and dad, when he came to see us at our dojo. This was the first time for many years two founder members had been together, it was really good to see Steve again, he had done so much for our club in the early day's. 37 years have passed by so quickly, and we have gone through some hard times but well worth it, we still have a great club full of great members. HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!!
