Team Bath Judoka Trio Crowned British Champions
Judo trio Prisca Awiti-Alcaraz, Gary Hall and Sam Potts completed a medal haul for Team Bath during an impressive weekend at the British Judo Championships in Sheffield.
Judoka, who train at Team Bath, won three golds and eight medals in total and continued to add to the illustrious reputation which precedes the Team Bath set-up.

The following day’s Senior Championships saw Gary Hall, a bronze medalist at the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games, dominate the -90kg competition to retain his British title. Sam Potts, who represents Team Bath and Gosport, won bronze.
The golden hat-trick was completed by Commonwealth Champion Megan Fletcher, who recorded a Yuko in the last five seconds of her -70kg final against Ryecroft’s Katie-Jemima Yeats-Brown.
Fletcher tweeted: “A very close final, but I am National Champ. Thank you for the awesome support from Team Bath today.”
Adam Hall and Conor Murphy won silver and bronze respectively in the men’s -100kg competition, while Adam Conroy and Sports Performance graduate Gregg Varey were runners-up in the -60kg and -66kg weight divisions.
Team Bath’s judoka are coached by Juergen Klinger in the dojo at the Sports Training Village.
