Tokai going to the Olympics

It's now official. Japan's Olympic judo team has now been selected. And Tokai is proud to have 2 of its members on the team:

Riki Nakaya (-73kg) : He's actually graduated from Tokai and has been recruited by the company ALSOK but Tokai will be cheering him on like crazy. He's currently ranked 2nd on the Internal Judo Federation (IJF) Ranking List.

Haruka Tachimoto (-70kg): Currently a 4th-year student at Tokai. She's not often present at our practices because she's off to the national training center or other clubs to practice. She was nominated captain of Tokai's women's judo team and is currently ranked 3rd in the world.

Good luck to both of them!
