Judo WA is pleased to share an exciting international opportunity for our community. In early September, the University of Western Australia (UWA), in collaboration with UWA Sport and UWA Judo Club, will host eight Indonesian University students who are also members of the Indonesian National Judo Team.
As part of the exchange, UWA Judo Club will open its doors to the wider WA judo community for a series of special training sessions with the visiting athletes. These sessions will provide a unique chance for local judoka to train alongside and test themselves against international-level judoka right here in Perth.
Venue: UWA Judo Club (Goldsworthy Rd, Claremont)
Open Session Schedule:
| Date | Start Time |
|---|---|
| Wednesday, 3 September 2025 | 6:30pm |

The Indonesian team will also compete at the 2025 Perth International Open, featuring athletes across the following divisions:
- Senior Women: Under 52kg, Under 57kg, Under 63kg, Over 78kg
- Senior Men: Under 60kg, Under 66kg, Under 73kg, Under 100kg
This initiative represents a wonderful collaboration between UWA, UWA Sport, and UWA Judo Club, and is a rare opportunity for WA judoka to experience international judo without leaving the state.
