Like a year ago, among the participants of the Olympic Games was a team of fighters of the Association of Okinawan Goju-Ryu karate from Moldova. All 10 of our athletes have returned from St. Petersburg with awards. Home team brought 3 gold, 3 silver and 4 bronze medals.

In one of the most spectacular courses - "Free fight" in the weight category 85 kg I-e was replaced by Edward Rajecka. All his fights, he finished ahead of schedule. He says it was necessary to win quickly, because they hurried to Chisinau train.

In the category of the competition "Toyshou" ( "pushing hands"), in which "specialize" masters competitions, "Gold" took Mankosh Igor. As half-jokingly told Russia's athletes, his technique can be traced to the Chinese roots. And if not a European appearance, that Igor could be taken for this very Chinese.
