Beccles Taekwondo Club

Twenty competitors from Bungay and Beccles Taekwondo clubs travelled to the heart of England in order to compete in this year's British Open Taekwondo championships at the weekend and despite huge categories and some very heavy contact they came away with a stunning 21 medals! Gordon Perkis and Kerry Norfolk achieved fantastic double gold medals for sparring and patterns whilst Amanda Linford achieved gold for patterns and silver for sparring, Lucy Thurbon fought superbly for her gold in sparring and bronze in patterns.

Jason Drake (from Beccles Club), and Jade Howgate achieved double silver medals in their divisions. Tegan Brown performed superbly in order to be awarded silver for sparring and bronze for patterns, whilst Amber Swanston, Liam Everett and Jacob Burden fought really hard for their bronze medals. Colby Aldrich was really unlucky to come 4th in his category after many rounds of hard competition.
