Massimo Mancini continues to impress
07 February 2014Manuel
The strong judoka of the Kodokan Samurai Spello ranked second in the International Tournament Alpe Adria, one of the four most prestigious youth tournaments in Italy. The athlete of the brothers Famà won the silver medal despite a day ended with a shoulder injury that stopped the athlete in the final for the first place. Although his ailments, the Umbrian athlete not only proved to be by far the best of the Italian athletes, but he has shown his power in the international field. Mancini on the path to the final repeatedly fell behind in the fights, because of his mental and physical condition that was not optimal, but he always won by ippon thanks to some great techniques. In the final with the Slovenian Dino Prepelic, Mancini was stopped by the medical staff, who preferred him not to endanger his left shoulder. A wise decision as he was convened by the Italian National Team for an international competition in Cannes and because in less than a month there will be the National Championships U18. Mancini is definitely one of the highlights of the Umbrian Judo, irrefutable proof of the hard work done over the years by the brothers Giuseppe and Giulio Famà and the new sector Vice President Perini Leonardo.
