The Murciano team participated in the Tatamikos League for the first time and from the outset we verified the high level and equality of the 10 teams participating in this tournament.
The UCAM-Ciudad de Murcia team was formed by Mario Sierra and Marcos Sánchez in -55, Pablo Martinez in -60, Josemi Estévez in -66 and Guille Romero and Juanjo Almagro in -73, who would take turns in heavyweight.
Our team was framed in the most complicated group, with hard rivals: Chidaoba, JC Alicante, Torrellano and JC Alcoy.
Two victories gave us the pass to the Semifinal, where we would see the faces in front of the Judokan of Valencia, with many medalists of Cto.
Of Spain in its ranks and that the team of gala took to compete against ours.
The 4-1 of the final scoreboard did not reflect the equality that was seen on the mat, but the Valencian team has quality and "craft" and that decanted key battles.
The defeat took us away from the longed-for Final, and placed us in the third place of a Pódium, which was shaped like this:
1st CHIDAOBA of Alicante
2º JUDOKAN de Valencia
3º JUDO CLUB UCAM-CITY OF MURCIA
3º JC ELCHE
