Veteran VM – 2019

Publicerat den 24 oktober, 2019

För första gången så arrangerade de tävlingen i ett gigantiskt stort tält utanför hotellområdet. arrangemanget flöt på bra men det blev väldigt varmt i tältet under dagen så det var viktigt att förbereda sig på bästa sätt för att klara prövningen.

Dag 1 – M6-M9

IJF´s text får beskriva första dagens tävlande där Kenneth Larsson, SPIF M6-81 slutade på en 5 :e plats och Fredrik Brag, Västbo JK M6-90 och Jorge Jofre , LUGI M7-81 blev oplacerade.

Scandinavian Clash

In the M6 -81kg category the spectators witnessed a ‘Scandinavian Clash’ between Torben Hersborg from Denmark and Kenneth Larsson from Sweden. “It was very hot today. This bout was the one leading to the bronze medal round, so it was a very important one for both of us. And I think we both gave our outmost,” said Kenneth. “It was a very close combat. There was little difference, but finally Sweden took advantage of the little dance on the tatami,” he jokes. “I didn’t want to point it out to him that this was the battle of the Scandinavians,” Torben laughs. “Because I was afraid, I would have stirred him up to do even better.” Both recently participated at the European Championship for Veterans. “I like it here better. Moreover, I like the heat,” says Torben. “Having the event in a big tent I think is a splendid idea. The circulation of fresh air I like.”The Danish judoka has no hard feelings losing from his Swedish opponent. “Kenneth got silver at the European championship. He competed well there and now here. I’m not crying for losing against a worthy opponent.”

“Judo is in my blood; I just love the sport. I’ve been practicing judo since I was a kid. It’s a perfect way to exercise,” says the Swede who is a real estate consultant in his professional life. “When I step on the tatami for training, I forget about everything else. After a hiatus I’ve been back doing judo for ten years now. And I honestly have to say it has been the happiest period in my life because I find the balance between my private and professional life and also my training.” Torben, who is an osteopath, agrees. “I fix judokas,” he jokes. “But, it’s true. Judo gives you something other sports don’t. When you are on the mat you have to completely focus on what you got in your hands. Otherwise you end up on the floor. At the same time when you get thrown, you get up again. That’s what you learn from the very beginning. You have to get up and get stronger,” Torben ends.
