Thank you to everyone who supported us in a fun day of competition! Well done to all the competitors for performing so bravely as we know it was a first time for many. Thank you to all the parents for creating such a great atmosphere. Also a huge thank you to the team at AAMA (Sensei Vesa, Steve and Tom) for hosting at their beautiful dojo.

I hope this gives everyone a taste for competition, keeping in mind that Nationals are in Brisbane next year!

Congratulations to Lucy and Benji who have been selected for the National Team to compete at the Junior World Championships in Poland in October. Both athletes started karate in the kids class on Thursday (Lucy aged 5 and Benji aged 7) so it’s a pleasure to see them grow into elite athletes. Also very narrowly missing out on selection were Piper, Miles, Sebastian and Thomas. 

A fantastic medals result for Chiaki (gold) and Alejandra (silver) who were competing at their first Nationals and only recently moved out of Thursday beginners up to the advanced class!
