I found nice ippons in team match of high
school in Kanto region in 2012. It was quarter final, from red side Sugamo vs
Nittaiebara.
High school players sometimes show
unexpected and excellent movement. In these matches, white team Fukusho and
Taisho showed beautiful performance. So I want to introduce.
From red to white, score before Fukusho was
0(1) - 2(3). So, white team had advantage and if next player win, white team
win.
Due to the resolution of video, I couldn’t
read red team name (Sorry). But, white team Fukusho was Takagi and Taisho was
Murase.
First was the Fukusho match. The strongest
point in white team was forward Men with momentum like 0:30. It was very
youthful and vibrant stroke.
At 1:25, white player’s kaeshi-Do became
ippon. It was a nice aim; watching opponent player well and successfully
counterattacked.
At 2:15, stretching Men with good spring.
This time, red player approached but he stopped his step without taking enough
defense.
So, winner was already decided to the white
side. But, it remained and continued one match “Taisho”.
Taisho match started 2:35. Red player
lowered his shinai with approach. It might be effective in some situation. But,
here was not a proper choice. It was white player’s confortable reach and he
easily hit beautiful Men at 2:39.
At 2:52, red player also stopped his step
and it was again white player’s reach. So he hit Men again to end the match.
Except first Do, situations white team
players hit ippons were similar somehow. Those were moments opponent players’
stay at sites. I want to say footwork is important.
But in these matches aside from this, I was
impressed their technique. And in addition to good hitting technique, white
players’ posture and form were neat and good. I found beautiful plays in the
video, so I introduced this one.
