We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Sensei Moe Oye on his promotion by the Judo Canada Grading Board to Kudan (9th Dan)
This honor is well deserved as Sensei Oye has been a leader in Judo across Canada all of his life and has been a mentor and role model to all of us at Judo Manitoba.
We are very pleased and honored that Sensei Oye has received this honor and we look forward to having an in person celebration when Covid allows.
Milton Good
President Judo Manitoba
To the Judo Manitoba family, I hope you had a pleasant holiday season and a good start to 2021.
After closing a year that no doubt was hard for all of us, I want to let you know that the association continues to work for our sport.
This includes remaining up-to-date on relevant information, supporting our clubs and making sure we are prepared for a safe resumption of activities when we are authorized to do so.
We will continue to follow Public Health Officials’ advisories and guidance.
In the meantime, please stay safe, and hope to see you all soon.
Milton Good
President, Judo Manitoba
