Another edition of the Coimbra Junior European Cup is over and as always this weekend was filled with excellent and exciting contests!

TORO SOLER has judo in her genes, her mother and father are both her coaches, and today she had her mother by her side who helped her to achieve today’s gold.

In the Top 3 of the medals table Italy took the top spot, winning 4 gold, 5 silver, and 8 bronze, followed by the Netherlands with 3 gold, 1 silver, and 4 bronze, and Spain with 2 gold, 1 silver, and 1 bronze.
