A group of St Albans Judo Club members clinched medals for the British team at the Den Helder International in The Netherlands.

Chloe Alvis missed out on a medal on the first day but the opportunity to join the senior ladies category resulted in a silver.

Jessie Edwards won her first international medal after finishing second and Thomas Lish picked up his second international award in less than six months after winning bronze.

Connor Nash also scooped his first international medal with a hard-fought third place finish.

Paige Rowlatt suffered two broken bones in her arm during a fight and was presented with a bravery award after completing the contest despite suffering the injury.

Tori Cleevely just missed out on a medal after tough bouts against heavier opponents.

Paddy Lish claimed two wins but missed out on the medals despite making a big impression.

In order to be selected by the British Judo Council these young Judo players must win national medals and attended a required number of squad training sessions in the year.

St Albans Judo Club runs sessions five nights a week and welcome members of all ages and experience.
