Charlotte New Zealand representative Oceania Judo Championships 2017

In preparation for the OJU's I attended my fist national training camp in Gisborne! This was such a great opportunity to not only meet the other athletes on the team but to also improve my throws and techniques over a tough 3 days with New Zealand's head coaches and with guest coach Matt D'Aquino. Matt being an Olympic Judoka who I was able to receive invaluable advice from over the course of the camp. I still have a long way to go, many more camps to attend and a lot more practice to do but this was such a great camp to get me started!
