Like their elders, the junior boys and girls of the JCCC also knew how to be conquerors to win a qualification for a French championship.
For the 2nd and 3rd year cadets, the BFC 2nd Division championship gave the first 8 the possibility of finding themselves with a ticket in their pocket for the National 2nd Div.
Robin CIVELLI in -55kg, won a beautiful bronze medal and will go to Clermont on May 21 to try to end his junior years in style. He will be accompanied by Marc DELHUMEAU, who with his 7th place in -60kg will also be on the trip. It was close for Valentin GAUDILLAT (-60), Aloïs GAUTHEY (-66) and Maxime PIELUCHA-MALEY (-73) who all 3 stumbled in the 1/4 finals and finished 9th in the competition.
On the girl side, 3 Espoirs (1st year cadets) lined up, with a qualification for the France Espoirs Championship in sight.
Full card in the -52kg category with a double, since Sarah PETIT becomes champion, with 5 fights won by ippon and Rachelle NARS vice champion for a 100% Chalonnaise final! In -57kg, beautiful silver medal for Maëva HUGUENIN, who did not find the solution in the final but who will also be traveling to Clermont on May 22.
A lot of work for coach Yann DU CLOSEL, who will do everything to ensure that his foals make it to the beautiful Championship on Clermont land!
