29 Judokas competed on November 8 and 9

Le Lycée la Pérouse était remarquablement bien représenté ; entre les deux tournois qui se sont déroulés le week-end dernier, 29 judokas du lycée s’y sont inscrits.
Samedi 8 novembre, au Boys and Girls de South San Francisco 15 compétiteurs étaient présents. Ce tournoi était réservé aux débutants, ceintures blanches et jaunes. Une opportunité pour nos jeunes athlètes de se familiariser avec la compétition. Ils étaient mis par groupe d’âge et de taille et ont effectué une moyenne de 4 combats d’une durée maximum de 3 minutes.
Toutes nos félicitations à Arya Valentino, Gexan & Joana Arrechea, Maxwell Meadows, Marin Gomart, Janet Brusil, Sebastian Kobus-Bergin, Murat Magomedov, Sophie Meunier, Matthew Stevens et Nicolas Manrique pour leur toute première participation à un tournoi de judo. Certains d’entre eux ont même assuré une place sur le podium. Bravo à tous pour leur courage et leur engagement.
Dimanche 9 novembre, le tournoi de Palo Alto était réservé aux judokas plus expérimentés. Cette compétition a rassemblé plus de 250 jeunes enfants. 14 compétiteurs du Lycée se sont battus avec force et vigueur. En plus de féliciter nos athlètes, je voulais remercier les parents qui ont attendu patiemment que leurs enfants combattent.

The Lycée la Pérouse was very well represented; between the two tournaments which took place last week-end, 29 judokas from the Lycée were registered.

An opportunity for our young athletes to get used to competitions. They were gathered by age and size and fought an average of 4 matches and each match could last up to 3 minutes.
Congratulations to Arya Valentino, Gexan & Joana Arrechea, Maxwell Meadows, Marin Gomart, Janet Brusil, Sebastian Kobus-Bergin, Murat Magomedov, Sophie Meunier, Matthew Stevens and Nicolas Manrique for their very first participation to a judo tournament. Some of them were able to secure a place on the podium. Bravo for their courage and commitment.
Sunday November 9th, the Palo Alto tournament was for our more experienced players. This competition gathered more than 250 young competitors. 14 of them were coming from the Lycée and fought vigorously. I want to congratulate all of them. I also want to thank the parents who had to wait quite a long time before seeing their athletes to fight.
