Hace dos meses, Gabriel ROSILLO KINDELAN (CUB) ganó el oro en el Campeonato Panamericano de Mayores en 97 kg en grecorromana. Derrotó un luchador experimentado de los Estados Unidos por el título. Y hoy tiene que hacer lo mismo.

Hoy Rosillo está compitiendo en el Campeonato Panamericano Juvenil en la Ciudad de Guatemala, su primera competición de nivel juvenil.

Él sigue ganando en grande, pero hay algo un poco diferente esta vez.

“Hoy me siento bien. No tengo tanta presión porque en Argentina en el Panamericano de Mayores, hubo mucha presión,” dijo Rosillo. “Yo solo tengo 20 años y hoy, no hay ninguna presión.”

Rosillo ha dominado la competencia. De sus cuatro combates hasta el momento, él solo ha luchado menos de 3 minutos en total.

Su victoria más rápida llegó en las semifinales, donde derrotó a Juan CANTILLO TORRES (PAN), 8-0, en 17 segundos.

Por el oro, Rosillo se enfrentará a Braxton AMOS (USA). Ya venció a Amos en la primera sesión de acción, 10-0, en solo 40 segundos, pero se volverán a encontrar esta noche.

Rosillo ya tiene una medalla de oro del Campeonato Panamericano de Mayores de 2019 y también una medalla de bronce del Campeonato Panamericano de Mayores de 2018.

DRUSKININKAI, Lithuania (June 26) --- The Lithuanian Wrestling Federation conducted a Referee Training Course from June 15-18 in conjunction with the Druskininkai Cup. The course had 13 participants and was led by Karol LEBOWSKI (POL), UWW Referee Educator.

The first two days of the course were theoretical and focused on discussing the rules of wrestling and interpreting the evaluation of technical actions by analyzing Lithuanian wrestlers during championship competitions. The final two days of the course were the practical sessions. The referees had a chance to work the competition and directly apply their skills. They focused on working as a mat chairman and with the referee team. During those sessions, they were provided feedback and improvement by Mr. Lebkowski. “The course was very popular among the participants. During the course, they asked many questions, to which we searched for answers together by analyzing the regulations,” said Mr. Lebkowski.

The participants in the course also share their appreciation of the course. Many stated that they liked the practical part carried out on the mat the most. They had never before met with a practical discussion of the referee's movement on the mat and the cooperation between the referees. They were very satisfied with the training conducted.
