Yzeure Judo on all fronts

Four young yzeuriens were in the running in Grenoble for the Aura cadets championship, second division, reserved for judokas not selected for the last French championship.

Rafael Alavoine in -90 kg had a clear day and won gold by winning all his fights by ippon. Mattéo Pastural in -60 kg is credited with an excellent run and finished fifth. They are both qualified for the French second division championship, on May 21, in Ceyrat.

Yanis El Omari and Marie Vallée-Goudouneix failed to qualify, despite good fights.

The next day, the first year cadets competed in the Aura qualifying championship for the national phase. Camille Pierre-Pouviaud in -57 kg finished fifth and qualified. Titouan Delpuech fell short of a qualifying victory.

In seniors, Ewen Boulade was the only Yzeurien representative in -60 kg. Although he was only junior 1, he reached the semi-finals after three very high-level fights, losing with honors to the eventual winner. He finished fifth after losing the fight for bronze, but qualified for the French third division championship on June 5 in Paris.

President Jean-Pierre Fantin was very satisfied: “These medals and qualifications are very encouraging and show the dynamism of our troops”, while giving an appointment this Friday, May 13, at 6:30 p.m., at the Bellevue gymnasium, for the gala with all the young people of the club.
