Lan bags bronze medal at World Jujitsu Championship

 Nguyen Thi Lan has won a bronze medal at the World Jujitsu Championship held in Thailand recently.

The tournament drew 500 competitors from 43 countries and territories in the world.

Leader of the Vietnam team Do Ngoc Hung said the medal will inspire Vietnam to further invest in the sports.

The Japan-originated Jujitsu has developed strongly in recent years. Although it hasn’t been listed at the Asian Games (ASIAD), it became an official event at some other international sports tournaments, including the Asian Beach Games (ABG).

The Vietnam Jujitsu team is gearing up its training and preparation for the ABG 2016 to be held in Danang, Vietnam.
