Athletes of Kalmykia became prize-winners of all-Russian tournaments in hand-to-hand combat

In November, Ryazan hosted two major tournaments in hand-to-hand combat at once: the Cup of Russia and the All-Russian festival “Russian Championship among schoolchildren”.

The competition was attended by 740 athletes from 39 regions of the country. The most difficult fights unfolded on the carpets, and the Kalmyk fighters once again proved their skills.

In the Cup of Russia, Aziza Karaeva won bronze, fulfilling the standard of the candidate for master of sports (KMS).

At the All-Russian festival "Russian Primacy among schoolchildren" first place was taken by Saida Omarov in the age category of 12-13 years (up to 53 kg), bronze for two athletes: Galina Shataeva in the category of 12-13 years (53+ kg) and Ekaterina Tereshchenko in the category of 16-17 years (up to 48 kg).
