Côte d’Ivoire delivered an outstanding performance at the Johannesburg Junior African Cup, South Africa, securing three gold medals and reaffirming its growing strength in African judo.
The Ivorian champions are:
🥇 Daboné Seydou Mohamed (-60 kg)
🥇 Bamba Aboubakar Sidick (-73 kg)
🥇 Bah Lou Carlie (-78 kg)
The results place Côte d’Ivoire among the top-performing nations at the tournament, highlighting the country's continued investment in developing young judo talent. The competition brought together junior athletes from across the continent, offering a valuable platform for the next generation of African judokas.
The victories are particularly significant as they come just weeks before the African Junior Championships, where many of these athletes are expected to represent Côte d’Ivoire once again. Their performances also confirm the country's steady rise on the continental judo scene following strong results in recent international competitions.
Congratulations to Daboné Seydou Mohamed, Bamba Aboubakar Sidick and Bah Lou Carlie for flying the Ivorian flag high on the African stage.
