We came away with numerous medals to add to our tally from previous world championships .

This is a huge achievement and reflects their commitment, discipline and hard work.

We encourage participation as part of a students growth but we recognise that its not for all students.

A full set of TAGB approved sparring equipment and a valid TAGB licence.

CAN BEGINNERS ENTER COMPETITIONS?

Yes from yellow stripe onwards. Students are grouped according to height / weight / grade to ensure it's a fair as possible.

ARE COMPETITIONS SAFE?

They are very safe with TAGB trained medics and St. John's Ambulance in attendance. In over 25yrs of competitions I've only see a handful of severe injuries, normally twisted knees. You will encouter far more injuries on a junior or senior football or rugby pich at the weekend.
