Fifty years of top class judo were celebrated by past and present members of Tonbridge Judo Club on Sunday 9th September 2007 when coaches, members and their families marked the club’s 50th anniversary with a special party at the training hall in Swanmead.
 
At the same time there was a surprise birthday celebration for club chairman and chief coach Chris Bowles, also 50, who unveiled a commemorative plaque to mark half a century since the club was founded.
 
Bowles, a past European champion and Olympian, paid tribute to his former coach and club stalwart Dick Marcroft , 69, who has coached at Tonbridge since 1961, and senior coach Jon Pulley, with the club for more than 30 years. He thanked them for their dedication over the years and made both men honorary life members.
