Our Beginings
Our club first began in the fall of 1999 as a park district program for
Gurnee... the program turned out to be a smashing success. By the end of 2000,
the program had over 15 gold medallists from the Jr. and Masters Nationals.
With this level of success, the head coach, Tim Schultheis, decided to go it
alone and form the Gurnee Judo Club. Our success continues with players at the
national and international level.
Our Focus
The GJC focuses primarly on Junior Athletes, competitive Judo, and the importance
of positive, upbeat, and honest attitudes. Athletes are instructed on throws,
pins, submissions (when over 13 years-old) and personal fitness. We take our
Judo very seriously!
