Mark Organ, Assistant
Bursar from Tonbridge School, talks to Kent Online

“We are keen to build on this to forge further sporting,
tourism, cultural and educational links over the long-term and
hopefully economic links, too.”

It is understood that KCC is in talks with several other
countries who are interested in using the county for preparation
and training camps. They include squads for other sports from both
Ukraine and Belarus.

Mark Organ, assistant bursar of Tonbridge School, said athletes
would have access to top-class facilities at the school.

The squads will use residential
accommodation usually used by more than 400 boarding pupils
during their stays.

Tonbridge Judo Club chairman and
senior coach Chris Bowles said: "This is fantastic news for our
club and British judo."

He said he hoped some of his
players could be in contention for a place in the 2012 GB judo
squad but had "some great prospects" for the 2016
Olympics which will be held in either Chicago, Rio de Janeiro,
Tokyo or Madrid.

The club, which celebrated its 50th
anniversary last year, has around 120 members aged from five right
through to senior players.
