Olympic judo winner and legend socializes with BiH journalists

SARAJEVO, (Patria) - The European club judo champion from Chechnya (Grozny-Russia) has been staying in Sarajevo since Friday.

Judo club Edelweiss is one of the most organized judo clubs in the world and a club with more than thousands of judokas in its ranks.

The efforts invested by the club's management in recent years have led to Edelweiss becoming the European club champion in 2017, which is an exceptional sporting achievement.

Edelweiss frequently hosts and collaborates with the most eminent athletes in the world, sports experts, and sports legends such as judoka Yasuhira Yamashita (a competitor who was undefeated in his career).

They also frequently host other world-class famous athletes such as boxers Floyd Mayweather, Badr Hari, and others who, with their presence, provide additional motivation for young people to work hard and achieve sporting success.

- What we particularly emphasize as significant is the visit of the youngest Olympic judo winner, multiple world and European champion, sports legend Ilias Iliadis, and certainly one of the most important judokas of all time. Ilias Iliadis is an athlete who selflessly passes on his knowledge to young athletes, motivates them, and is one of the most responsible athletes for the popularization of judo in the world.

As part of the visit of our guests, a series of activities are planned that will certainly contribute to the development of judo in Bosnia and Herzegovina under the auspices of the ON 1 sports project - stated the ON1 club.

A press conference is planned for Monday at Hotel Hills at 2 PM, and in the coming days, visits to institutions of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

This visit is a confirmation that the ON1 sports project and ON 1 judo club are certainly increasingly taking on an international character in the field of judo, moving a step ahead, and becoming recognizable in the world of judo.

- Despite all the difficulties and challenges we have gone through, but believing that we are doing the right thing, we have managed to achieve this high level of sports cooperation and development, to the delight of all our friends, athletes, and people who, both at home and abroad, have recognized the potential in judo in Bosnia and Herzegovina - say ON1.
