Our Story: Bridging Communities through Judo
The Garda Judo Club, a beacon of sporting excellence since the 1970s, has a rich and storied history. Our doors are wide open to serving and retired Garda members, support staff, as well as enthusiastic adults and juniors from our vibrant local communities. At Garda Judo Club, we extend a warm invitation to ALL Judo players, whether you're a seasoned pro or taking your very first steps on the mat. To welcome you, we offer complimentary 'taster classes.'
In 2021, we proudly achieved a historic milestone by constructing Ireland's first purpose-built, club-owned Dojo exclusively for Judo. Nestled within the Westmanstown Sports and Conference Centre, Clonsilla, Dublin 15 (D15 Y2DH), our Dojo is a haven for Judo enthusiasts of all backgrounds, ages, and skill levels.
We celebrate diversity, welcoming individuals of all shapes, sizes, and backgrounds, from men to women. No need for embarrassment here; just a warm and inclusive atmosphere where we build camaraderie and share the love for Judo. Join us on our incredible journey, where our story is one of unity and passion for this remarkable sport
