Participation in judo is getting bigger and bigger in the territory.

Despite a bit of a drive to get there for most participants, numbers were way up at the Carcross Judo Championships hosted by the Hiroshikai Judo Club at the Ghuch Tla Community School on Saturday.

A total of 74 judokas took part in the championship, up from 28 at last year’s championship, which was the first hosted by Carcross in about 15 years.

Not only were there 11 more than the season opener competition at the Golden Horn Judo Club in November, there were seven more than lasts year’s Yukon Judo Championships that included 15 Alaskans.

Four Yukon clubs were represented at the second championship of the season on Saturday.

Whitehorse’s Shiroumakai topped the win list with 23 medals, including nine gold.

Golden Horn and the hosting Hiroshikai club both had 13 and Northern Lights won seven medals - one for each participant.
