Kickboxing experiences year after


Year passed quickly and we took part in kickboxing Czech Open for new experiences under different rules. Ondra Faltin, Jan Veškrna and me for our first time and Jana Kovářová fought again after her nice appearance here last year. Ondřej Vrábel, Martin Svitek and Jirka Faltin were helping as coaches and Petra Veškrnová helped to motivate us with kind word.

We registered and weighted on Friday evening and competed on Saturday. Ondra fought as first in light contact, he did well, but lose with slight score difference. Honza entered his first fight, kicked three round kicks and was disqualified for hard contact. Jana used her experiences from last year and got bronze after 1:2 score. I was the last to fight under light-contact rules. First round was easy, but second got me to "enjoy" my summer holiday cardio. But I won after all.

Second discipline we took part in was semi-contact or point-fighting.
Ondra did well, but lost not adapting enought for kickboxing style. We expected Honza to do well here as he is very quick, and we were right. Just very experienced hungarian fighter stopped him in final - so second place for Honza.
Jana fought through first fights to final where got point for kicks and her opponent mostly for hand techniques. They got to extra round which led to "first point" round. And here opponent´s hand was first to strike and Jana got very hardly earned second place. I lost first fight, but then win second one for bronze medal.

I was afraid a bit how will I adapt to different rules, but after all I have to say that I am happy to took part in this event.
