Student NationalsCongratulations go to all the squad members who took part and kept the high standard of our Club throughout the year. The last competition of the year was held recently in Chesterfield. The team of Richard, Sheldon and Daniel represented the Club. The team performance was exciting full of speed power exceptional techniques. Sheldon long lunging Kizame zuki stopped some competitors literally in flight. Daniel continues to improve utilising his long ranging kicks and scoring equally with his punching combos. Richard has finally won the Individual Kata it has been a long time coming but as I always say 'You cant keep a good man down', very well done Rich. Richard's has regained the mobility that was his trade mark fighting style a few years back, fast body movement striking fast giving his opponents no time to get their counters off. Richard along with Sheldon and Daniel kept the Rochfords flag flying. The quality of students the club possess is exceptional, long may it continue. I hope the younger members will look to the more advanced grades and emulate both techniques dedication and Discipline to their training and the Club. |
