In January 2025, the UKBJJA Junior Development Camp took place in Berkshire, bringing together young Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu athletes from across the UK. This exclusive event provided an invaluable training opportunity under the guidance of one of the most accomplished junior coaches of 2024, Gary Howe.

Howe’s team dominated the Junior Nationals, securing the team points title, and several of his athletes also achieved prestigious medals at the Pans in Florida. With over 50 young athletes in attendance, the camp was more than just a training experience. It was a celebration of dedication, talent, and the future of UK BJJ.

Every participant in the UKBJJA Junior Development Camp was generously rewarded with gifts from event sponsor, Progress, as a token of appreciation for their hard work and commitment to the sport. Support from sponsors like Progress plays a vital role in the development of young athletes, ensuring they have access to top-quality training experiences.
