Crikvenica Summer Training Camp

We have first organized the summer training camp in Crikvenica in 2010 and this year it will open its doors for the 9th time to judoka from more than 20 countries from Europe and wider.

The camp is suitable for judoka above 12 years of age. The training sessions will be split into two groups, separate for children under 16 years of age and older. This year we expect over 500 judoka from more than 20 countries to be present.

The training sessions will take place under a large tent with 700 m2 of tatami. After a hard randori session, there is nothing better than a quick jump into the clear waters of the Adriatic sea, which is only 20 meters from the training tent.

The focus of the camp is on learning new technique through randori and instruction from great coaches such as Evgeny Lvov from Russia who will also be the camp leader. The second part of the camp is going to be focused on practicing kata under the leadership of Mr. Piero Comino and others.

During the summer camp, we will hold friendly competitions: a golden score tournament, a football tournament, and a Kata tournament.

On a day of rest, we will organize a boat trip for all the coaches and accompanying persons to one of the nearby islands, where you will be able to try the local cuisine and wines.

To register please fill out the entry form and send it back to us as soon as possible.

Welcome to Crikvenica.
