The French Women’s Judo Team Prepares for 2023 Judo Masters at CREPS in Vichy: A Potential Major Training Facility for Paris 2024 Olympics

This is a first and a test by the Paris 2024 Olympic Games for the French judo federation. The French women’s judo team is on an internship at CREPS in Vichy for 10 days in July 2023 in preparation for the judo masters in Hungary.

The new facilities inaugurated a few weeks ago convinced Amandine Buchard. The Olympic champion assures that she really likes the place. “I find it very relaxing. It allows me to recharge the batteries a bit, especially psychologically.” Et in terms of infrastructure”it’s faultless“, explains Amandine Buchard. “The equipment is top notch, the room is well air-conditioned, there is space, we are not on top of each other, the rooms have been renovated.“

Become a new important place for French judo

A framework that changes from INSEP in Paris where judokas are used to spending time. Change of environment is always beneficial according to Christophe Massina, head of the French women’s judo teams. “It allows you to clear your mind and prepare for competitions with a little less pressure but a little more lightness.“

The French team has not yet decided whether the CREPS in Vichy can be one of the important places for preparing for the 2024 Paris Games. But the place scored points with the athletes and the federation to become an important place of preparation.
