 Photo Two – Preseli Karate Clubs recently held a two Day Grading for Senior students and a Sunday for Juniors. With nearly fifty students taking part the standards produced were of extremely high quality. There are too many to name individually but Chief Instructor Mike Blackborow had great praise for all participants. A special mention should be given to Amy Thomas and Phillipa Noble who attained the rank of 2nd Kyu – brown belt and Gerry Jenkins 1st Kyu.
