"Back to Judo" is our initiative to rebuild Judo in Victoria after a long COVID lockdown.

  • Top 3 clubs which have supported my business over its lifetime get extra

  • Stock is limited and is expected to be picked up before 20 nov, not every club will get the same item, and stock will not be held

Frequently asked questions:

  • Why kids gi?
    • statistics say clubs have more kids than adults. The 650gsm gi is very good gi for kids at that age. I also have more of these than any other model.
  • How does Dojo Mats benefit from this?
    • exposure. your club will benefit financially from the sale of the gis and masks and will hopefully help with some necessities
  • How much can I sell the gis for?
    • I would expect anywhere near the RRP, so that you can benefit more from the sale of the gis. Selling for anywhere near half the RRP is not helpful to helping you raise funds
  • I'm a MMA/BJJ club, can I benefit from this?
    • Unfortunately, this initiative is for the Judo community in Victoria only
  • I'm involved with 2 Judo clubs, can i collect for both?
    • No
  • Does this initiative expire?
    • Yes, Please be in touch AND collect before the 20th of November
