Vince Skillcorn

Vince represented Great Britain as a Cadet, where he fought at both the European Championships and Youth Olympics, as a Junior and Senior Level Athlete. Following an early retirement at 24years old, Vince transitioned into coaching, initially at the prestigious Camberley Judo Club, before going out on his own to build one of the UKs biggest Judo Clubs, Fighting Fitness Judo. Vince has a MSc in Advanced Sports Coaching Practice, a BJA Level 5 and UKCC Level 4 Coaching Award. We discuss coach development, how to get more people interested in coaching Judo and what we think needs to happen to grow the sport.
