Košice, Snina (21.10.2017) Slávia Snina, for the first time, included a tournament in the SZZ calendar organized in honor of the significant wrestler, Ján Židzik. 64 freestyle wrestlers from Slovak clubs, as well as from the Czech Republic and Moldova, gathered at this first edition. The preparatory coaches, Štefan Csorba and Jozef Jackanin, traveled with a large delegation of their charges, as did the senior coach, Miroslav Jedlička. The children and men together managed to win first place in the team evaluation by a large margin. The delegation also included referees Matej Gardoš, Hany Al Kubati, and the Sýkora brothers, Jakub and Matúš, and Andrea Šambronská was in charge of the presentation and table scheduling for the entire tournament. We were also pleased with the high attendance of parents, and the club president, Ján Tokár, was not absent.
It was the first edition, which is probably why the attendance was not so high, but all competitors had at least two matches, as the competition was held in an A, B system with two losses. The exception was weight categories occupied by only one wrestler. With up to 5 competitors, the matches were held in a NORDIC system, meaning "everyone against everyone." There were the most of these weight categories, so the children had a good test before the approaching penultimate round of the pupil league in Snina, and the men, in turn, could have a good wrestle before the Slovak Championships, which await them on November 4, 2017, also in Snina. The coaches expressed overall satisfaction with the performance of their charges, as out of 22 wrestlers, eighteen from Košice stood on the winner's podium! Of course, there is room for improvement, and it is precisely such competitions that contribute to improvement, whether in technique, strength, or endurance and fighting tactics. We look forward to more victories and gold cups for our club. ah
Congratulations to all!!!
