Another great day of competition for the Renrukan.
We took 5 players to the High Wycombe Judo Centre for this competition – open for players graded up to and including 6th Mon.
Two of our players, Josh and Conor, were out at a large competition for the first time at over 8 years old.
Very proud with all players for making the effort to compete in tough surroundings; always a great learning curve.
All fought to their best with Josh gaining a BRONZE medal.
Lee fought and gained GOLD, winning all of his 4 fights in fantastic style and with a standard of judo etiquette that I have never seen in my judo lifetime. Only once have I witnessed such quality and that was at a world masters in Ireland by a Brazilian player. He took 2 golds. But that player was a world master! Lee is 11 years old and took high praises from the referees and many of the top ranking officials. ‘Where did that all come from?’ was one the comments from the ref. I smiled and said, ‘I’ll pass that on’.
JOSH PATEL U24 Kg (BRONZE)
LEE INGRAM U34 Kg (GOLD)
KIERAN HALL U34 Kg
OSCAR WHEELER U38 Kg
CONOR BATESON U42 Kg
You guys made me proud again. Lee, that was an awesome display of the complete sport of JUDO.
See you all at training.
thanks
