  • Saturday afternoon April 5th is SNWJG Kata, the kata tournament for Adapted judoka in all levels, followed by a seminar.
  • Saturday evening we will shake Beverwijk to splinters with a grand party in Assumburg Castle!
  • And finally, Sunday April 6th it is time for BENG, the great judo party for all levels and all ages.
