On March 9 at National Institute of Judo in Paris took place championship of France in judo among young men till 17 years
In these competitions the young Vainakh judoist Islam Reshidov became the silver prize-winner. If someone thinks that in France it is easy to become the prize-winner of the national championship, whether it be among young men, juniors or adults, he strongly is mistaken. Level of the French judo in the world is very high. It is enough to remember the last Olympic Games-2012 in London where two French teams of men and women won in total two gold and five bronze medals. And about popularity of judo in the country I can tell on an obvious example. On city competitions in Nice where I live, sometimes gathers to one thousand children.
16-year Islam Reshidov also is the pupil of one of clubs of Nice — "Judo Club Nice" (Club of judo of Nice). In superiority of France he acted in weight category of 55 kg and only in the ending conceded to Valentin Simara from Bar-sur-Ob city.
