“Luck doesn’t exist, there is the moment when talent meets opportunity.” The words of the Latin philosopher Seneca also seem to adapt perfectly to the universe of martial arts. To demonstrate this, the results of the young athletes of the Kyokushinkai Marche karate school.
The prestigious Civitanova team participated in the national championship Mas Oyama Cup, which took place at the Palasport Pippo Nicosia in Agrigento. Three hundred young boys, from every Italian region, challenged each other in kata and full contact kumite combat. The 25 of the Marche school, including Diego Marianialready selected for participation in an important international tournament in Tokyo, distinguished themselves by winning 18 podiums.
“The important fact is not the number of trophies but that almost everyone has passed the first round of fighting and that even the smallest athletes have passed at least three – declared the Senpai Luca Di Lorenzo -. This is a sign of meticulous, careful and constant preparatory work. We were winners because we used discipline to face our opponents.”
