Our team traveled to Liverpool for the National Youth Championships, this event brings together competitors that are under 21 from clubs across Great Britain and Ireland.
The competition is always fierce and of a very high standard.
Our team performed well and conducted themselves impeccably on and off the matts.
A few special mentions, firstly to Kalinka, Lucy, Radha and Joseph who were competing for the 1st time and despite being extremely nervous gave a fantastic account of themselves.
Secondly to Thomas and Olivia who backed up their Shotokan Cup wins by taking the titles in their respective categories.
Finally to Aman who became the boys GRAND CHAMPION winning both the Kata and Kumite events.
