By Jacob Aguiar Special to the Reporter Maria Dhami, an 18-year-old Dorchester woman who is a four-time National Junior judo champion, wants to represent the United States on its Olympic team. To that end, she has committed herself to competing widely, nationally and internationally; it’s a commitment that comes at a great cost of time and money. A graduate of Boston Latin Academy who lives in the Polish Triangle, Dhami is the top ranked junior in the 52kg weight class and current Junior champion. She was four years old when her family came to the United States from Albania. Four years later, she was student of judo at the Boston Ultimate Self-Defense Center who as time went by experienced early success at local tournaments but defeats in national competitions. Those losses fueled her determination to get better. “When I started I was much stronger than my opponents,” said Dhami. “I think winning is what kept me going when I was younger. I mean who doesn’t like to win tournaments? When I began to compete in national tournaments I started to lose Maria Dhami, second from left, is a National Junior Judo Champion who hopes to represent the US on to people and that kept me interested because I had the Olympic Judo team. to get better.” Tournament competition was a big part of her online fundraiser. development. “You have to go to a lot of tournaments “I got money from people I haven’t seen or spoken Maria Dhami is shown (in white) in action for the to gain experience,” she said. “When I first started to in years,” said Dhami. “I’m a graduate of Boston Boston Judo Club.
