Judo career
Stewart became a four times champion of Great Britain, winning the light-heavyweight division at the British Judo Championships in 1980, 1981, 1982 and 1983.[3] In 1986, he won the bronze medal in the 95kg weight category at the judo demonstration sport event as part of the 1986 Commonwealth Games.[4]
In 1988, he was selected to represent Great Britain at the 1988 Olympic Games. Competing in the men's half-heavyweight (– 95 kg) division, he won a bronze medal after being defeated in the semi-finals by Brazil's eventual gold medalist Aurélio Miguel.[1]
Post retirement
After retiring from competition, he established a judo club, and coaches at the GB Judo Centre of Excellence,[5] where he coaches, among others, his sons Max Stewart and Elliot Stewart.[6][7]
