It was an interesting appointment in the German Judo Federation (DJB).

Laura Vargas Koch, a famous former athlete, has been appointed to the post of vice-president of the institution, Idman.biz reports.

In addition to her sports career, Vargas Koch wrote her doctoral dissertation and is a professor of mathematics at the University of Bonn.
