PARKING AND ACCESS

We aren't yet sure which entrance gate will be open on the day, so we've provided a map showing the possible parking access points.

Whichever gate you enter through, the directions are simple:

1. Park in the available car park.
2. Head towards the rear fence line.
3. Follow the fence round the back of the school.
4. This will bring you round to the sports hall.

Please take a look at the map before travelling so you know where you're heading.

We look forward to welcoming everyone for what promises to be another fantastic day of karate!

Safe travels, and we'll see you on the tatami!

🥋 FROM THE JKS England NATIONALS TO THE COMMONWEALTH CHAMPIONSHIPS!

Fresh from competing at the JKS England National Championships, where Megan secured a fantastic BRONZE MEDAL in Kata, the JKS Llanbedr DC & Llanferres Karate Club duo are already preparing for their next challenge!

Next weekend, they're heading to Glasgow to compete at the Commonwealth Karate Championships 2026. 🌍

Everyone at JKS Llanbedr DC & Llanferres wishes them both the very best of luck. Enjoy the experience, give it everything and represent yourselves and the club with pride!

A big thank you also to JKS Scotland, who will be assisting with the coaching and supporting our competitors throughout the event. It's great to see clubs working together.

Great day for JKS Wales and even better for us to have a JKS Llanbedr DC & Llanferres Karate Club member amongst the medalists.

Well done everyone that travelled down.

🥋🏆 SIX COMPETITORS. FOUR MEDALS. ONE FANTASTIC DAY FOR JKS WALES! 🏆🥋

A brilliant day today in Nottingham at the JKS England National Championships, with six competitors travelling to represent JKS Wales and some fantastic results to celebrate.

A special congratulations to our four medal winners:

🥇 Sinead – Gold, Kumite
🥉 Megan – Bronze, Kata
🥉 Reuben – Bronze, Kata
🥉 Cerys – Bronze, Kumite

Four medals across two disciplines is a fantastic achievement and testament to the hard work, commitment and dedication of everyone involved.

But medals aren't the only measure of success. We also want to congratulate our other competitors who stepped onto the mat today. It takes courage to compete, put yourself under pressure and perform in front of others. Whether you win, lose or come away with a medal, simply having the confidence to get out there deserves recognition.

We're incredibly proud of everyone who represented JKS Wales today. You have done yourselves, your clubs and Wales proud!

Well done everyone! 👏

Great results so far from the JKS England Championships! 🥋

Our very own Megan has secured BRONZE in Kata! 🥉

Megan was also unlucky not to progress through to the final, but put in a fantastic performance and has come away with a well-deserved medal.

Some excellent performances from everyone representing JKS Wales today. It's always nice to bring some medals home!

Still one more to go, with Ewan yet to compete in Kumite. Good luck, Ewan! 👊

Well done to everyone representing JKS Wales today. You've done us proud! 🥋👏
