'They practice every Thursday in the gym under the leadership of one of their own members, Mike Fischer. Mr. Burns moderates the club, giving it status as a school-affiliated club. Club members take iudo for the sport of it rather than for any intent to practice it on someone else. However, if danger would arise, the iudo could be put to quick and effective use. Equipment for iudo is not expensive. The club uses the mats in the gym, but provide their own iudo outfits. l
