This month of competitions opened on Saturday 6 April, with a double appointment in Ostia and Naples.
The national final of the Italian Junior Karate Championships took place at the PalaFijlkam in Ostia. The Polisportiva Libertas, guided by the instructor Coppolecchia Antoniobrought into competition in Kumite Roselli Federicawinner of the Apulian qualification, e Trent Joseph86 kg already silver in the regional phase.
For both it was a competition without satisfaction, but important for the experience acquired at certain levels. There is regret for Roselli for having only stoically honored the event with an ankle injury, which kept her away from training for about two weeks and therefore not allowing her to fight on equal terms, and even more for Tridente for having lost his match in the final seconds after having led the entire match, only to give up at the edge of the gong. A real shame but it must be a stimulus for better management of the next races.
Of different flavor and intensity, however, the weekend of the Judo sector of the Molfetta team, which under the technical guidance of the instructor Alicino Sebastianoparticipated in the Vesuvius Trophy held in Naples, again last Saturday.
A representative of seven athletes who competed with their peers from Campania, Puglia, Calabria and Lazio. A large event which saw the presence of around 750 athletes in the age groups from 8 to 12, divided into three age classes and obviously weight categories.
They excelled, winning the gold medal, Totorizzo Elena in the 39 kg category Girls and Guarino Giovanni, in the 28 kg Children category. Both won all their matches showing good technique and managing some matches well against strong Neapolitan athletes.
They reached the podium, winning four silver medals, too Gadaleta Damiano +60 Kg Beginners A, Cifarelli Damiano e Andrea Kvezereliboth in the heavyweight categories of the Boys class, ed Errico Cosimo in the 31 kg Boys.
Important experience for Capurso Laszlo who competed for the first time in a competitive competition with a good fifth place in the 42 kg Beginners A.
Youth competitive activity is requiring great organizational commitment from the Polisportiva Libertas Molfetta and the families of the athletes, as underlined by the Sports Director Michele Amatobut which represents the right stimulus to continue training and above all the best driving force to involve other gym mates in participating in the next events.
