Club Leadership

Our Governance

The Campbell River Judo Club is guided by a dedicated team of volunteers who support the long‑term health, safety, and success of our programs. Our Executive Committee and Board of Directors work together throughout the year to uphold our values, strengthen community connections, and ensure the club continues to thrive for future generations.

We maintain an open, community‑based governance structure, with members invited to participate in club decision‑making and annual reviews. This approach reflects the spirit of our organization and the tradition established by our founders, including Mr. Ramsey, whose early leadership helped shape the club we are today.
