May 17
Our only Level 2 course of 2024 will be at the JudoScotland National Centre in Ratho on the 17th & 18th of May and 7th & 8th of June 2025 with the assessment completed remotely/video by the 31st of August 2025. Please ensure when signing up for this course you are able to attend all of the dates shown above.
The course cost may be subsidised in line with sportscotland approach of Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI), which aims to diversify the coaching workforce and ensure the inclusion of under-represented groups and people with protected characteristics within coaching as shown below. Please complete all sections of this application as JudoScotland will be reviewing each case individually and decisions will be made from the information you provide. Applicants must be a JudoScotland member and have been so for over one calendar year.
Over the last fifteen years JudoScotland have received a subsidy from sportscotland to make coaching more affordable to a wider audience.
In 2025/26 sportscotland have updated their focus to shine a spotlight on EDI. This refocus now means that JudoScotland must refresh our subsidy policy moving forward, through our ‘Judo for All’ strategy we have identified some key target groups that will be considered for financial subsidy against our course costs.
