"USA Judo is very excited about the new partnership with Team Travel Source because it will provide more hotel options and hotel-specific customer service to our individual members as we start hosting national events in larger cities," USA Judo Chief Executive Keith Bryant said.

TTS boast a staff of 75 which will be charged with negotiating preferential rates at hotels throughout the United States on behalf of the team.

"This partnership also will serve as an opportunity for the larger USA Judo sanctioned event organizers to have someone handle the logistics of hotel management at their events at no cost, while also earning revenue.” Bryant added.

TTS already have similar deals in place with the United States' governing bodies for swimming, ice hockey, field hockey and baseball.

"We’re uniquely positioned with experience working with more national governing bodies than any other sports housing provider and have key relationships with destinations to help expand USA Judo's footprint nationally while enhancing the event and housing experience for their athletes, coaches, staff and families," TTS President Kelley Roberts said.

"We pride ourselves on having a team of rockstars who act with integrity, value all voices and understand that customer service is at the root of everything we do."

Further details on the specific aspects of the deal are set to be announced shortly.

It follows an agreement signed last week with the French Judo Federation to create training camps before the Paris 2024 and Los Angeles 2028 Olympics.

To date the United States have won 14 medals since the sport was introduced to the Olympics in 1964.

Kayla Harrison remains their most prolific performer. 

She followed half heavyweight gold at the 2010 World Championships with successive Olympic gold medals at London 2012 and Rio 2016.
