Analyzing the fight at the tournament the coaches speak of serious skill level increase of young sambo athletes. New rules, to which young sambo athletes get used to rather quickly, were discussed separately.
“Boys and girls reviewed the rules on the website and prepared, said the coach of the Russian Junior National Team, Roman Bolotsky. – The day before the championship we’ve held a workshop for coaches and referees, where we’ve explained the peculiarities of refereeing. The fights are finished faster, because the clear victory is now scored to the wrestler, who has 8-point lead instead of 12”.
The coach noted that the fights were held on four mats in Astrakhan and the overall picture of the competitions was rather dynamic.
