Mat Hero 2026

Every nomination will equal 1 entry into a draw. Every nomination earns an entry to win a pizza party. Winner will be announced at Provincials.

Dear Members,

April is Volunteer Month, and we’re excited to launch our “Nominate Your Mat Hero” campaign to recognize the incredible volunteers who
help make our judo community thrive.

Coaches, parents, referees, and behind-the-scenes volunteers all play a vital role in supporting our athletes and clubs. This campaign is a
simple way to say thank you and shine a spotlight on those who make a difference every day.

How it works:

Submit a quick nomination (takes less than 1 minute)
Tell us:
The person’s name
Their club
A short sentence about why they’re awesome
A photo (optional, but encouraged)

All nominees will be featured throughout the month on our social media channels, helping us celebrate the people who strengthen
our judo community.

Incentive:
Every nomination submitted also counts as an entry toward a club pizza party draw at Provincials!

We encourage all members to take a moment to recognize someone who has made a positive impact on their judo journey.

Thank you for helping us celebrate and grow our volunteer community.
