The City of Doral has again the chance of hosting an international Judo event. This time it is the IJF Grand Masters Judo Championship, and will take place between November 6th and November 11th 2012 at the Doral Resort and Spa. In this event, athletes between 35 and 75 years old gather to compete, showing that preserving great physical condition and constant training are the key to successfully stay in the highly competitive world of sports for a lifetime.

There is no doubt that these Olympic Games have been the most successful event in USA Judo history. Composed by an extremely talented, focused and hard working group of athletes, the USA Judo Team for London 2012 collected remarkable results that will forever be instilled in the memory of all their enthusiastic Judo fans that have followed their performances closely.
