Venray International Judo Tournament in Holland

Although I was not able to win a medal, I won four fights against foreign players.  I won my first fight by ippon then unfortunately lost my second by getting strangled. I gathered up my spirits and then I managed to win my next three fights. After those three fights I got strangled again and lost. In the end I got 7th place.
The players were very keen on atempting strangles. It was evident that they practise them at clubs and use them in competitions. In England I practice and learn strangles but I am not yet allowed to strangle at competitions so this is something I can improve.
