“Judo Club 2012”, happy 10th anniversary!

We created “Judo Club 2012” 10 years ago, inspired by the state’s care for sports and athletes in Azerbaijan. We set a goal to serve the development and popularization of judo sport in our country, as well as to gather veteran athletes together.

Honorable President Ilham Aliyev also participated in the opening ceremony of the club. With the blessing of the head of our state, each of us – both those responsible for the club’s activities and those who work here – have taken it upon ourselves to persevere in order to achieve the goal set on our path.
Our successes increased year by year, our collection of medals and awards was enriched, and most importantly, we brought new names and promising young athletes to Azerbaijani judo. At the same time, the club literally became a hotbed for our master judokas. They prepared for the world and European championships here and returned from those prestigious competitions with victories and medals.
The club’s students were included in the national teams of different age categories, and in international competitions, they deservedly protected the sports honor of Azerbaijan, managed to raise our flag, and sing our national anthem.

In “Judo Club 2012”, hundreds of children and teenagers learn the secrets of judo and other sports under the guidance of experienced coaches and try to reach spiritual and physical perfection.
On this significant day, I sincerely congratulate those who contributed to the activities of “Judo Club 2012”, including coaches and athletes, and all the technical staff, and wish them good health and success in sports and life!

Let’s celebrate several decades together, with joy and victories!
