Two students from Aycliffe GKR Karate Federation took part in the national competition in Sheffield. Both worked really hard to qualify and for Asa Fletcher it was his first nationals and a big stage to perform. He did well in Kata and Kumite but unfortunatly didn’t win any medals.
Annalise Tinkler worked well and won Silver in her Kumite which puts her as the second best in the country which is a great improvement as she was ranked 3rd last year. She also won silver in team Kata and Bronze in team Kumite. “I am very proud of both students” We now start again in preparation for the next nationals in November said Sensei Dez Tinkler.”
