Congratulations to Morgan Imlay of Oakland University Judo and Rayeanne Magee of Macomb Y Judo, winners of the Konan Fundraiser to benefit the USJF  John Osako Referee Development Fund.

Both Morgan and Rayeanne will receive a personal judo lesson from Dr. In Chul Cho,  World Champion and Olympic medalist.

Thanks to all who supported this fundraiser by selling or buying tickets.

The John Osako Referee Fund was established in 2008 with a generous initial donation from Evelyn Osako, John’s wife, and the Judo Affiliates of Michigan to provide financial aid to aspiring PJU Regional, IJF Continental, and IJF International level referees intent on gaining further experience in order to develop & improve their skills, remain abreast of emerging standards, achieve higher international certification, and be in contention for consideration to officiate at the highest levels in the world – Junior World Championships, World Championships, and the Olympic Games.
