Judo and wrestling for Piedmont teens and adults, a straight shot down the turnpike

Piedmont is at the north end of Canadian County and we're at the south end. The Kilpatrick Turnpike connects us in about 30 minutes, with no stoplights for most of the way.

For teens who want more than a school season

Teenagers who are serious about grappling usually hit the same wall: one sport, one season, and nowhere to train the rest of the year.

At Dominion, a Piedmont teen can train judo on Monday and Wednesday and wrestling on Tuesday and Thursday, all in the 6 to 7:30 pm slot. The two sports feed each other. Judo adds throws and grip fighting that wrestlers rarely see, and wrestling adds the scrambling and conditioning judo players need.

Students who want to compete enter Oklahoma Judo Association and USA Judo tournaments, and we're the only OJA member club in Canadian County, which includes Piedmont.

When the drive is 30 minutes, a lot of Piedmont parents decide they'd rather train than wait in the car.
