British Poomsae Championships 2013:

Latest:  Max secures hard won BRONZE    

In an extremely competitive group of 24 poom grades (junior black belts), Max secured an outstanding Bronze medal win in his very first British Championship. The competition was over held over 3 rounds in which 2 (different) poomsae were performed in each round. The competition eliminated 12 competitors after round 1 and 4 further competitors after round 2. The top 8 contested the final, so simply making the final was no guarantee of a medal.


There was disappointment however for sisters Lauren & Hollie Wilkinson when they failed to make it past the semi-final stage.

The sisters (Lauren featured in the 2012 final, but Hollie could not attend day 2 due to severe weather conditions last year) were consoled after being reselected for the GB Squad again this year, recognising not only their high standards, but also the fact that with a packed field of top quality competitors. it was inevitable that many of the best would not reach medal positions.

Max too, was reselected to the GB Squad.
