THE BENG-XXV AFTERMOVIE!

Normally, BENG! aftermovies show how much fun we had, highlighting a few spectacular moments on the mat. But this time is different. This was our 25th tournament – a special anniversary – and we could never have reached this milestone without the tireless dedication of our volunteers, the unwavering loyalty of our participants, and the heartfelt support of everyone who holds our tournament dear.

That is why this aftermovie is not just a look back, but a sincere tribute. To the hundreds of incredible people who, year after year, make the Special Needs Judo tournament possible: this milestone belongs to you!

Until then, Until BENG!

As always, we made lots and lots of pictures (about 40.000 this year!) and underneath you can find links to a selection. We put the medal ceremonies in a separate series.

 

Erasmus+ Weekend in the Ben van der Eng Dojo

This weekend we received about 30 guests; our dear friends from Romania, Slovenia and Sweden honoured us with a visit. This was part of the Erasmus+ Judo4ID project and they came to show us what they learned about teaching judo to people with disabilities. All in all we had a great weekend, good food and lots of fun!
