USA Judo Clubs – I Challenge You to Freestyle Judo

by Vincente D’Ingianni

 

(Yes, I just said that.)

For years now, I have listened to judoka whine, cry, bitch, and moan about the IJF rules. Yet they have been complacent about stepping outside of their little box for fear of retaliation from the USA Judo cabal. It is BS and you know it.

The Judokai in Dallas has now hosted numerous official AAU Freestyle Judo Fight Club tournaments. In the beginning we deliberately kept our events small to make sure we knew what we were doing. We now have participants from 3 neighboring states and all over Texas at our events. We have competitors from Judo, BJJ, and Wrestling all competing safely on an even playing field with absolutely no penalties needed.

Fight Club at The Judokai is now an “official regional tournament”.

We SALUTE Fort Worth Judo, Ichi-Ni-San, RJO, Ethos, Forca, and many others for their support!

We thank the USJA for supporting our AAUJudo events.

However there is one big group missing. The USA Judo clubs in the Dallas metroplex area.

Through the rumor mill, I was told there is a club in a suburb of Dallas, sometimes referred to as “Arland” Texas, who told his students that they were not allowed to participate in AAU Judo events.  😉

I keep hearing about some tough “Bulldogs” out on the “Grand Prairie” who have been challenging the USA Judo establishment. We are on your side. When are we going to see you?  😉

There is an “Optimistic” club about an hour north of us who cheers for us on Facebook. We are still “Optimistic” that they will eventually send some people.  😉

There is a “Sliding” Judo club that I would love to see at our upcoming events. I will even let that nice “Yawara” lady and her family set up a booth to sell their embroidery. They know where we are located. They used to train in our same facility.  😉

The latest “East Side Story” is that our events are too long and they prefer events closer in length to soccer games.  😉

So the challenge is made.

DO THE “USA JUDO CLUBS” HAVE THE COJONES TO COMPETE IN AAU FREESTYLE JUDO?

DO YOU WANT TO STEP OUTSIDE?

We will be advertising more upcoming Freestyle Judo events soon.

#Judo, #FreestyleJudo, #USAJudo, #DoYouWantToStepOutside

(BTW, our guys and gals have been competing in IJF too. Some were in Kansas this past weekend. We pay membership fees to USA Judo and USJA. You guys can splurge a few bucks for a measly AAU Judo membership. Stop poor-mouthing.)

That’s the way it ought to be.
