New triumphs for the Calabrese Fighting Team Modica. Last Sunday, at the PalaBattiati in Catania, two students of Valeria Calabrese became regional champions in full contact.
For the Modica team, in the 63.5 kg category, the highest step of the podium was conquered by Francesco Girasa, who, after standing out in light contact, won by points against Stracuzzi in the final, confirming his technical skills in full contact and securing the Sicilian title for the first time.
Regional laurels for the Ibleo club also in the 67 kg category with Ahmed Mohamed, victorious in the final against Bonanno.
Satisfaction expressed by coach Valeria Calabrese: "I am happy — explains the multiple champion from Modica — because both Francesco and Ahamed delivered two excellent performances and rightfully brought home the regional title. Their opponents were both of high caliber — she continues — but they did well to turn the match in their favor. I am glad that these two titles came in full contact because — concludes Valeria Calabrese — they had been missing for a while, and I am also happy that it was Francesco and Ahmed who won them because they cared and wanted it strongly."
