Judo Federation of BIH held a camp with an expert from Japan

The Judo Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina held a camp where participants of all age categories could enjoy the education of the instructor and judo expert from Japan, Juta Nishimaki. The camp was organized in cooperation with the Japanese Embassy in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Japanese International Cooperation Agency, and the Judo Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

At the six-day camp, the participants learned new skills and techniques, and expert Nishimaki was up to the task this time as well.

"This camp is synonymous of friendship between the two countries. It is known that Japan is a country that has helped Bosnia and Herzegovina a lot, especially the sport of judo, which actually originates from Japan. Expert Juto Nishimaki was up to the task this time as well, and I must express my special thanks to H.E. Kinefuchi Masami, Ambassador of Japan in Bosnia and Herzegovina", pointed out Prof. Dr. Branislav Crnogorac, who is most deserving of the fact that judo is the most trophy-winning Olympic sport in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The Ambassador of Japan in Bosnia and Herzegovina spoke about the cooperation between the two countries and sports as a motivating factor.

"This camp has a motivating effect on young judokas in Bosnia and Herzegovina and will contribute to deepening the friendly relations between our two countries. "We will continue to support the development of Bosnia and Herzegovina in all segments, especially in sports," said H.E. Kinefuchi Masami, Ambassador of Japan in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The camp was also attended by the best BiH judokas, Larisa Cerić, Aleksandra and Anđela Samardžić, and Toni Miletić.
