Preferred Advisers for the Commonwealth Judo Championships 2012

I am very pleased to announce that Harries Watkins Jones are the preferred adviser to CJC2012 LTD a company formed to arrange and deliver the Commonwealth Judo Championships 2012.  The event will take place in Cardiff, commencing on the 22nd January 2012.  An exciting high profile event for Cardiff and Wales.   To find out more about the event, visit the official website. 


The Commonwealth Judo Association website stated, "The Commonwealth Judo Association are delighted to announce that the 2012 Commonwealth Judo Championships has been awarded to Wales. The Welsh Judo Association will host the event in January 2012 in the city of Cardiff. The CJA Bid Committee had a difficult decision to select from the two candidates, Wales and South Africa. South Africa will host the 2011 IJF World Junior Championships.

The Welsh Judo Association is busy identifying a management team to deliver a world class event and is working closely with the Welsh Assembly Government Major Events Unit, recently involved in delivering the Ryder Cup at Celtic Manor."

Welsh Judo Association Chairman, Keven Williams said, “Wales is proud to be hosting the 2012 Commonwealth Judo Championships, we plan to run the largest ever Commonwealth Championships and welcome the world to Cardiff to enjoy some traditional Welsh hospitality. We are sure that many nations will see this event as a springboard to the Olympic and Paralympic Games later that year, and also to the Commonwealth Games in 2014. Many thanks to the CJA for entrusting their faith in us.”
