The penultimate stage of the judo road to the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games opens in Antalya, Turkiye, on Monday (1 April) with the 2024 IBSA Judo Grand Prix.

Antalya will host one of the major tournaments during which judoka can grab some of the last points for the Paralympic Ranking List.

The Antalya Sports Hall will gather the best judokas in two classes (J1 and J2) across eight weight categories in men’s and women’s fights on 1 and 2 April.

The draw is scheduled for Sunday (31 March) at 6:30pm (CET) and can be watched live at IBSA Judo’s website.

“IBSA Grand Prix Antalya will be the 3rd major event of the IBSA Judo 2024 and one of the last opportunities for preparations for the next Paralympic Games in Paris 2024. I extend our deepest gratitude and appreciation to IJF President Mr. Marius Vizer and all IBSA directors for their support and confidence in the organisation of this event in Turkiye. I wish all of you, as well as the people of the world, good health, a strong spirit, and all the best to the participants!
