Delroy Murphy is Kitty Jamaat Judo Club Most Outstanding Student
After a year of commendable achievements, where he won a Gold medal in an invitational tournament in Barbados that involved 5 other countries, Delroy Murphy was adjudged the Most Outstanding Student by the executive members of the Kitty Jamaat Judo Club, and Public Relations Officer/Organizing Secretary, Hilbert Archer presented him with a trophy, donated by Khan’s Auto Sales, Hadfield Street, Stabroek, at a simple ceremony at their Sandy Babb

Street headquarters, Tuesday afternoon last.
The young judo practitioner had distinguished himself among his peers from Guadeloupe, Barbados, Ecuador, Trinidad and Tobago and Martinique at the one day tournament at the Sir Garfield Sobers Stadium, Bridgetown Barbados.
Additionally, Murphy had travelled to Panama in March last year and had copped a Bronze medal after participating in an international judo tournament.
Murphy’s Sensei and Coach, Raoul Archer, is extremely proud of his charge and ventured that he has a bright future ahead of him. Mr. Archer further said that two other judokas, Kyle and Kevin Archer have been performing credibly and he will not be surprised when they eventually hit the spotlight. He said that there are approximately 35 judokas in the Kitty Jamaat and his executives will soon extend their services to non Muslims interested in honing their skills in the sport. He also said that administrators are currently preparing a team of judokas for the 2016 Rio Olympics in Brazil.
Mr. Archer had accompanied Murphy on the Barbados trip and had attended a 2-days workshop that dealt with the intricacies of judging. There was also an upgrade to the rules recently and the above forum examined those changes.
