The Remscheid Bundesliga team strengthened again a good six weeks before the start of the season.
Before the season starts on March 18 with the home fight against JC Hamburg in the Neuenkamper Halle, the very ambitious RTV judo team has once again become active on the transfer market. With Shamil Borchashvili, another top-class player joins the squad in the weight class up to 81 kilograms. The Austrian of Chechen origin is 27 years old and can look back on outstanding successes that have been achieved in recent years.
He brought bronze with him from the World Championships in Tashkent last year as well as from the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. The Bergische Judofreunde can look forward to another class man. Borcharshvili recently fought for Bundesliga rivals JC Potsdam.
Important: For March 18th, an agreement is being reached with the handball players of HG Remscheid, who would have been in action in Neuenkamp with the 1st and 2nd teams that day. “We try to move our games to Sunday if the city and association play along,” reports HGR chairman Bernd Pfluger, who has been in close contact with manager Cedric Pick from the RTV judo team over the past few days. -ad-
