The youngest children took part in the Aude tournament in Narbonne: Ninon won the silver medal by climbing onto the second step of the podium by showing mentality and tenacity during all her fights. Faustine ranks 7th, demonstrating great combativeness. Julia and Noah, acquiring constructive experience for the rest of the season, discovered this demanding level. The cadets traveled to Toulouse for the Occitanie color belt grand prize: Estelle, Arthur, Lucas and Anthony, apprentices in this category, had promising fights but did not manage to qualify for the final phase. The adapted sport judokas headed to Fleurance (Gers) to take part in the interdepartmental tournament: Marc won the gold medal 1st as a veteran. Chloé, Mathieu, Aléxis 2nd get the silver. Émeline and Cindy placed 3rd bronze medal. All six of them are qualified for the interregional tournament in Montauban (82) scheduled for January 26, 2025. Bravo to the brave fighters for their involvement.
The club thanks the supporters, parents, educators, teachers who fervently supervise and encourage the Salisian judokas every weekend.
