National Championship experience gained
Chloe Lymer contested her first National Championships on Sunday 3rd December.
Held in Sheffield, the event is a highlight in the British Judo calendar, and is the largest domestic event, with four categories being contested over two weekends.
Chloe entered as the current English number one player, but unfortunately was unable to turn that to her advantage on the day, being eliminated in two fights.
The experience gained will stand Chloe in good stead for when she tries again next year.
Welsh joy for Chloe, success for Harry
Chloe Lymer continued her excellent competition form, with a bronze medal at the Welsh Open at the end of October. Chloe won three out of four fights with maximum ippon scores.
This has now placed her top of of the British Judo Ippon League ratings at the beginning of the 2023/24 season! Congratulations Chloe – and good luck at the British Championships this weekend.
Harry Webb was also in action at the end of October, competing in the Halloween tournament organised by Holbrook Judo Club. Harry did exceptionally well, having learnt from his experiences at the previous novice event organised by Holbrook, and claimed a well deserved third place and bronze medal.
