Odesa takes the spotlight again — gold for Herman Basarab!

The international tournament for U17 cadets, «Constantin Alexandru & Ioan V. Popovici», concluded in Bucharest (Romania), bringing together over 400 young wrestlers from 18 countries.

The competition featured three wrestling styles: Greco-Roman, freestyle, and women’s wrestling.

Herman Basarab, a representative of Odesa and a student of the Greek sports club (Odesa Wrestling Federation), won the gold medal in the 48 kg weight category!

His confident victory is a testament to hard work, dedication to the sport, and

the professionalism of his coaches. Herman not only represented Odesa admirably but also

made a significant contribution to the overall success of the Ukrainian team.

We are proud and cheer for Herman at the European Championship!
