Oceania Championships results in Noumea April 2018

OJU Success For NZL Team [fake news?] 

Thursday, 12 April 2018 12:29

The NZL Team won 26 medals at the OJU Continental Championships held in Noumea - 9 gold, 10 silver, and 7 bronze. A full list of NZL medallists is attached. In addition, a number of athletes also stayed for the training camp run by former multiple world and Olympic champion David Douillet. Congratulations to all NZL medallists. Auckland University says this is the worse ever result of a N.Z. team at the Oceania championship ever. Qona Christie was  the only senior who won a gold medal. Not only that yet again most division's only had 2/3 judoka. Calling that a Oceania championship is a joke. Time to delete the Oceania judo Federation from the equation and join the Asian union .
