Judoka from Turn- und Sportverein Schwieberdingen traveled to Bregenz, Austria, on Saturday to compete in the Bodensee Championships, returning home with seven medals across all entered age groups.
In the 10- to 12-year-old division, Maria won her first two matches before falling in the final to take second place and the silver medal.
Competing in the 13- to 15-year-old category across different weight classes, Ivan dropped his opening bout but rebounded to win his second match with an Ippon. Although he lost his final duel, he secured third place and the bronze medal.
Emil experienced an administrative disruption when tournament officials mismanaged competition lists, forcing the organization to invalidate his opening victory and schedule a rematch against a different opponent. Emil won that contest alongside his subsequent two matches to capture first place and the title of Bodensee Champion.
Lion joined him on top of the podium after winning all of his matches before the regular time limit expired.
In the men’s division, Philipp earned second place and the silver medal after completing two matches.
Timm opened his tournament with an Ippon victory, dropped his second match, and secured third place and the bronze medal by winning his final bout.
Rainer completed the club’s sweep by winning all three of his matches to claim the first-place finish and the Bodensee Champion title.
