Judo team to have two new athletes after Rio 2016
In an interview with Mediamax Sport correspondent, head coach of the team Armen Nazaryan said that judokas will fly from Russia.
“We will have new athletes in under 73 and 81 kgs weight categories. It is already almost clear who they will be, however it will be correct for them to join the team after the Olympics,” said Nazaryan.
Today members of the team are training in Armenia, and will leave for Sochi for training gathering from March 5.
“We’re preparing for European Championship. Meanwhile, several judokas will participate in qualifying tournaments. The upcoming review will be on February 6-7 in Paris, Hovhannes Davtyan and Ferdinand Karapetyan will perform there,” said the coach.
