Inaugural Games

The 2015 European Judo Championships were organised by the European Judo Union. Initially it was planned that championships will be held in Glasgow, Scotland, from 9 to 12 April 2015.[1][2] On 21 February 2015, it was announced that competition would be held in Baku, Azerbaijan, during the 2015 European Games.[3] The individual contests took place on 25–27 June 2015.[4][5]

The Organizing Committee announced on 4 April 2014 that visually impaired judo will be included as a medal event. This will make the European Games the first continental games to "fully integrate" a Para-sport discipline into its sports programme.[6]
