WKO FIVE NATIONS CHAMPIONSHIPS , TILBURY ESSEX.

This open championship event on Saturday May 25th 2019 was hosted by Lisa Shelton of SFX Gym in Tilbury Docks. It was Sanctioned by WKO. The event was very well run and well supported. All our Brighton & Eastbourne competitors, (some in for the first time) enjoyed themselves. Results are posted on the Kihapp App. 

Kicks came away with 2 Gold / 4 Silver / 3 Bronze. 

Congratulations to our two Gold Medalists: Junior Female Regan Maher and Senior Male Julian Bertone. Both showed skills and ringcraft in their winning bouts. Congratulations to Instructor Chris Bath who entered to get further experience of K1.  He won his bout in a tough battle but  was then advised by the medical team to not fight on into the final so took his well earnt silver.  Safety and health is always paramount.  Well done also to Ted Warner who took on fights in two categories and showed improvement from one fight to the next. 

Well done to all the fighters. Win or Loss in their bouts everyone gained from their experience in the ring and gave their all.  Looking forward to next year.
