While the world be touched to warm declarations of love on St. Valentine's Day, in Lipetsk 220 participants of the second day of youthful Superiority of Russia in each fight "undersigned" for the all-consuming feeling to judo. On Friday February 14 on a tatami "Youth" five sets of medals were awarded: in categories 48, 52 and 57 of kg at girls and 55 and 60 kg – at young men.
(57) and two Ayuba rose by top of a pedestal – the southerner Hazhaliyev (60) and Bliyev (55) of Siberia eminent already at the age of volzhanka of Anastasius Turchev (48 kg) and Christina Shilova (52), and also Siberian Elena Yurkina.
The arena to which through narrow windows the sunlight from the street got, since early morning "boiled". Four tatamis, warm-up carpet nearby, small tribunes around – everywhere were people. One athletes warmed up, others discussed the plan of the following fight with trainers, the third loudly supported companions, and the fourth had simply a rest. Events on a tatami developed promptly and, despite a large number of participants, fight went quickly. By the way, the Russian admirers of judo thanks to Internet translation for the first time can watch peripetias of competitions since early morning. Thus fight on each tatami is accompanied by the comment of the expert. At a microphone on Friday, for example, the Olympic medallists Aramby Emizh and Yury Stepkin, and also the tutor of Russian national team (girl) Irina Rodina visited.
48 kg
Last year much remembered the champion in category of 44 kg Nastya TURCHEVA from the Orenburg region (Volga federal district) with a naughty fluffy tail on the top. It brightly passed on a tournament grid in Volgograd, having become the winner, and then, as a part of Russian national team, won gold on youthful superiority of Europe and bronze – on the world. In Lipetsk Anastasia tried the forces in new weight – 48 kg and here also brightly proved. Ahead of schedule, without having lost any assessment, it finished duels of preliminary tournament with the Petersburger Gizatulina and uralochky Dranishnikova, the representative of the Central federal district Soldatenkova and the southerner Edigaryan. The competitor on a semi-final Karina Cherevan from the Central federal district managed to find a gap in defense of future champion - to carry out a throw and stories in the account "vase-ari". But Turcheva not long was in debt and answered "ippony". In Anastasia's final the strong competitor – the resident of Perm Darya Pichkaleva, the champion of the country-2012 in this category got. In Turchev's equal fight I could prove the advantage only last minute fights, but now she is a double champion of Russia.
"I knew, on what my competitor on the final is capable, - Nastya told. - After all for one team we fight - the Volga region. The relations out of sports at us excellent, and on a tatami – another matter, here friends don't happen. In Lipetsk wanted to prove what exactly I the strongest in the weight category and at me turned out. I went for interview long – I accepted congratulations of friends. They from the different cities of the Volga region and we are on friendly terms from Superiority of last year".
The third place in this category was taken by Karina Cherevan (Central federal district) who has overcome in the small final Anna Korchak (Central federal district), and the vice-champion of Russia-2013 Ekaterina Dolgikh (Central federal district) who was traumatized in preliminary tournament, but managed to surprise public not only character, but also beautiful throws.

The decisive meeting brought together Shilova, which all day won the father and the trainer Roman, with the southerner Margarita Shrayner, remembered to fans beautifully perfected throw through a back. And here Shrayner several times I tried to carry out crown reception, but it is unsuccessful – Christina competently left a dangerous situation and attacked. In 17 seconds prior to Shilov's final siren, traditionally strong in orchestra seats, transferred fight from a rack, turned the competitor and held to victorious, having made myself the quadruple winner of the Russian Superiority.
"I wouldn't tell that a Lipetsk medal any special, - the titled champion told. – Here bronze on superiority of the world is already other level. The decisive duel was rather simple. Where it was more difficult to reach the final. In a semi-final everything went not according to my scenario. I don't exclude that simply it wasn't adjusted on fight. Therefore from first seconds of fight I couldn't impose the will to the competitor. And speed wished the best. I prefer speed, thus as though play with the competitor on a tatami. For me on a tatami the main thing - to think, foresee actions of the competitor. It is helped perfectly by chess. Sometimes play with the father chess. It after all my trainer. Together we protect honor of the village of Uinskoye that in Perm Krai. We in the village have one more girl – the judoist, but to fight to have generally with boys".
Bronze medallists in Lipetsk became Marianna Mamitova from Krasnodar Krai (Southern Federal District), a series of throws including ippon won in the small final at the girlfriend at the command of the Southern Federal District Maria Dorofeyeva, and Siberian Natalya Malyukova, powerful painful "selected" bronze at the Muscovite Elmira Imamverdiyeva.

In a decisive meeting Yurkina was expected by the champion of Russia-2012 Christina Bolotova (Northwest federal district), so brightly last on a tournament grid to the final. Bolotova took at once the initiative, a fast throw through the head achieved serious advantage in half-victories and continued pressure. In rigid dense fight Christina caught Yurkina in orchestra seats and took it on deduction. Elena didn't give up and, having caught second weakening of a pressure, left dangerous situation, turned Bolotova and itself took it on "osaekomi".
