Martin Scherwitzl [club], AUT; Yvonne Bonisch [national], GER

She began judo at age six in Ampass, Austria. (derstandard.at, 22 Feb 2016; eju.net, 01 Jun 2015)

"I was a very active child at a young age and my parents really wanted me to do sports. We tried a lot of sports, from children's gymnastics to ballet. I didn't like them all that much. Then we tried judo and that was a lot of fun for me. I've done it ever since. Judo combines intelligence and training for body and mind. You do not only learn about the sport, but it also teaches you about life." (projektrio.at, 01 Jan 2016; tt.com, 27 Aug 2014; meinbezirk.at, 13 Jan 2021)

To win a medal at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. (Instagram profile, 14 Jun 2021; tt.com, 13 Nov 2020)

She trains two to three times a day, six days a week. (meinbezirk.at, 13 Jan 2021)

In 2011 she received the Most Hopeful Female Talent Award from the European Judo Union. (projektrio.at, 01 Jan 2016)

General Interest

General
ARMY TO POLICE
In 2020 she switched from a military sports group to a police sports group in Austria. "The difference is, in the police, I become a trained police officer after five years. I can do that in addition to the sport. In the armed forces, you can study on the side but when I stop playing sports, I am also finished in the army and have no job or complete training. Since I have always been interested in police work, that suits me very well for the future. It is a good opportunity." (meinbezirk.at, 13 Jan 2021; tt.com, 13 Nov 2020)
