Han
Rim Won Kumdo Championships, and farewell to Louis
Martino, Sharyn, John, Louis, Nahid, Cornelius, Richard, and
Elizabeth attended. Despite the 4am rise, we were energetic
and keen! Richard got out of his pool, as did Martino, while
John lost to Luke Lee. All played well and showed spirit; Elizabeth
forcing her opponent out through a strong kamae, Louis executed
a great hiki men, according to him, his best cut ever.Sharyn
took bronze in the womens competition, loosing the semi to
Daseul. An enormous meal and drinks fortified the team for
the trip home. Thanks Martino nad Cornelius for driving. The
event was a great opportunity to gain both shiai and shimpan
practise.

Thanks to Han Rim Won for hosting the event.
It was Louis's last event with the Club; he returned
to France the next day. The club thanks you for your training
and spirit, Louis, we hope we'll cross swords with you again
in future! All the best.
