The Heubach Judo Center in Baden-Württemberg was the venue for the Rosenstein Cup tournament for the U9 and U11 age groups. For seven young judoka from TV Kaufbeuren, the event marked their first major sporting trip to a major tournament outside of Bavaria. With a field of 220 young athletes, the Kaufbeuren athletes gained valuable competition experience – and all of them placed on the winners’ podium.
The boys compete outside the Free State for the first time
Department head Dieter Zimmermann was delighted with the performance of his protégés: “After the successful major tournament at Easter in Passau, where all TVK judoka stood on the podium, our young wild ones now also impressed outside of our regional association.” READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>
Coach Steven Oslath must be sensitive
Coach Steven Oslath, who had supervised the young athletes, mastered the challenge of transforming their nervousness into positive energy. The efforts paid off: In the U9 age group, Julian Keller took first place up to 45 kg. Jona Phil Peters (28.5 kg) and Alexandru Johann Tanasa (38.5 kg) each secured third place. The TVK judoka were also successful in the U11. Georgis Voshchan (up to 30 kg) and Nico Schmid (up to 33 kg) each took first place. Emily Merk (up to 30 kg) in second place and Maria Alfeder (up to 33 kg) in third place completed the impressive result.
Coaches and parents excited
The enthusiasm was not only great among the coaches. The parents, who not only drove the athletes to the tournament but also gave them loud support, were also proud. “It’s great to see that all of our judoka are on the podium again,” summed up Zimmermann. The Rosenstein Cup tournament in Heubach offered the young fighters of the TVK a valuable opportunity to demonstrate their skills and continue to grow. “Their successes confirm the high level of youth work in the Kaufbeuren judo department.”
