USA Judo has had a partnership with France Judo for nearly two years and one of our joint initiatives is to host an annual Olympic & Paralympic week for French-American schools and local area youth. This year’s Olympic & Paralympic week Activities will take place April 4-7, 2024 at California State University – Los Angeles, the location of the 1984 Olympic Games Judo Venue.
