Disappointingly due to the weather we had to cancel this year’s annual Presentation and Funday.
We usually get to celebrate the club’s successes over the past year and reward members for their dedication, perseverance and contributions which again this year included the club being awarded the best overall club at the Central Region Championships.
We had to present our special recognition awards at the dojo.
Congratulations to the following members
BLACK BELT OF THE YEAR - Olivia
BROWN BELT OF THE YEAR - Nehshaal
