Lea Fruean won silver in the 60kg division early this morning in Serbia. Great fight, very close, she lost to a crazy Indian girl who pipped her on the judges cards. Lea had come through two other good fights to get to the finals of the woman's 5th world tournament. A shout out to her at 15yrs old. Trained in Panmure by son Regan Foley.

Great stuff Team Lea! What age is the cut-off for juniors? Surely Lea will get another couple of attempts?

I'll chip in again if she does another one of these

Yep thats cool Goth, I think she must be just out of Junior, not sure, but there were other ages on board the nz team fighting in Serbia. It was a wimmins showdown lol.

Lea is going to go from strength to strength in my opinion, this is her first trip away and she will come home much more mature in the fight ring because of it. Keep chipping in mate, I certainly will be. A great kid, and really wants to fight.
