Bias judokas shine at the Lot-et-Garonne championships, with Ethan Clément Bel winning the title in the – 60 kg category. Despite a seventh place in Dax, his promising career attracted attention.
Serious things have just begun for the Bias judokas, always under the care of President Jean-Marc Tonti. With a first satisfaction recorded during the Lot-et-Garonne championships organized in the junior category. In the -60 kg category, Ethan Clément Bel, who lives in Casseneuil, won the supreme title. “This is the result of the serious work accomplished in training since the age of eight on the tatami of the Biasais municipal dojo,” the club’s emblematic coach Bruno Vincent likes to point out. He had already stood out during several competitions in the lower categories and was able to skilfully negotiate the turn for his 13th birthday. »
This success earned him the opportunity to participate in the zone championships in Dax, the antechamber of the regional events, which bring together the three departments of Lot-et-Garonne, Landes and Pyrénées-Atlantiques. “In a tough context, I lacked experience and finished seventh,” says Ethan. “As a result, I was not selected for the regional. The minimal official competitions being over, my season ends there. I will see you for the 2026-2027 financial year. »
A journey of this student in fourth grade at the Gaston-Carrère public college in Casseneuil that we will follow carefully.
Let us point out that we must wait until March to see the Bias from other categories fight. Good luck!
