Latest Competition Photos - Welsh Championships
What an awesome day in Cardiff!
Exeter Eagles took 14 competitors and 2 referees to Cardiff to represent the club at the Welsh Championships, and we couldn’t be prouder of everyone involved. From competitors, to referees, to supporters cheering from the sidelines — you all played a part in making it such a fantastic day.
It was a tough competition, but every student stepped onto the mats with confidence, courage, and determination. Whether you came home with a medal or not, you should all be incredibly proud of the way you conducted yourselves and supported one another throughout the day
A special mention goes to our medallists:
-
Luna – Individual Sparring
-
Peter – Individual Sparring & Team Sparring
-
Aga – Individual Sparring & Team Sparring
-
Ethan – Individual Patterns
-
Ela – Team Sparring & Individual Sparring
-
Alara – Individual Patterns
A huge well done as well to Ela, Alara & Zosia for achieving silver in Team Patterns together!
And finally, a last-minute decision on the day saw instructors Miss Searle, Mr Cheriton & Mr Osborne-Whiting enter Team Patterns together — coming away with bronze after a play-off A brilliant way to round off a fantastic day!
Things begin to quieten down a little now in the club calendar, giving everyone a chance to rest, recharge, and reflect on what has been an incredibly busy and successful few weeks before setting some new goals and pushing forward again.
