Tony Walby
Tony Walby (born 22 August 1973) is a Canadian judoka represented Canada in Judo at the 2012 Paralympics in the +100 kg category. He won his first match, lost his second, and was then eliminated in repêchage.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://paralympic.ca/en/London-2012/London-2012-News/Canadians-End-their-Judo-Competition-in-London.html )〕 Walby has been practising Judo since 1980, was a member of the able-bodied Canadian Judo team for 16 years, and won the national heavyweight championship in his last year of competition. He has genetic cone dystrophy, however, which caused his sight to begin deteriorating significantly in his early 20s, and he was declared legally blind around age 35. Two years later he learned that his visual impairment qualifies him to compete in the Paralympics and began training for competition again. In 2011 he won bronze in the +100 kg category of the Parapan American Games. Walby currently trains at the Takahashi Martial Arts School in Ottawa, Ontario, which was founded by Masao Takahashi and is currently directed by Olympian Phil Takahashi. His Paralympic coach is Tom Thompson.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://paralympic.ca/en/detail/37270.html?id=43265&profileid=43265&view=detail )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.judocanada.org/2012/08/27/canadian-judokas-get-ready-to-compete-at-the-london-2012-paralympic-games/ )〕 ==See also==
