🇪🇨 The Guayaquil World Championships Cadets 2026 brought together the next generation of judoka for four days of competition in Ecuador. 🥋

“The cadet world championships are an important stage in the development of young athletes and an opportunity for them to gain experience at the highest level.
Guayaquil welcomed talented judoka from around the world and we saw strong performances, determination and great team spirit throughout the event.
I would like to thank the Ecuadorian Judo Federation, the Panamerican Judo Confederation and the Ministry of Education, Sport and Culture of Ecuador for hosting the championships, as well as all our partners, officials and volunteers for their contribution.
We look forward to following the progress of this new generation as they continue their journey in world judo.”

– Marius Vizer, IJF President
