Sunday January 12, 2025, Louis Heintz, managed and selected by the Pôle Espoirs de Dijon, participated in the Excellence Cadets Tournament in Cesson-Sévigné in Brittany.
Entered at -73kg, in a dense category of 43 fighters, Louis achieved the perfect course with five victories by ippon without receiving any value. He did so again at the National Label A tournament in Chartres on December 15.
With his kumi-kata on the left, passionate and tiresome, with precise hip techniques and excellent physical condition, Louis is performing very well today.
He actually reached a milestone at the start of the season. With 6 podiums in the biggest national tournaments (3rd in A label in Tours, 3rd in A label in Troyes, 1st in A label in Chartres, 3rd in Excellence de Forges les Eaux, 1st in Excellence de Limoges, 1st in Excellence of Cesson-Sévigné),
Louis is currently ranked 3rd in the national Ranking List in his weight category. This ranking allows him to qualify directly for the French Cadets championship on March 1 and earn a selection on February 8 for the European Cup in Genoa, Italy with Pôle Espoirs in Dijon. On January 26, he will participate with his club mates in the Dijon Super Excellence Tournament. He will then try to win an International selection with the France Cadets group by reaching the final.
