The project has now expanded to
Blind Judo Team to Bandung, Indonesia. Aug 2017. One step forward for our Blind Judo program. The young blind Judo Team were so excited to participate in the competition. For three of them it was their first trip overseas.
The Competition went well, with the Team taking 1 Silver & 7 Bronze. A brilliant 1st effort. Ms Dayu gave thanks to Yayasan Damai Olahraga Bali, Rodney for support. Ayuk , Wayan , Made for training them and the big family of Dria Raba Orphanage, blind judo children, for their self motivation to earn and be best in this competition.
She also gave thanks to Mr Made , for his patience and effort in training her kids, to go from nothing to something, so they can compete in national competitions. Ms Dayu continued that this was a great opportunity for them to compare their skills and abilities against the other Judoteka.
Mr Made said he hoped with more training and their new found motivation that next time they could bring home a gold medal for Bali. He hopes the children and Dria Raba can work together to be the best in the future. We wish them all the best in their aspirations. Congratulations.
