Day after @BUCSsport Nationals. @uomkarate come back with 1 gold, 1 silver, 4 bronzes, 3 5th places, 4 8th places. Best performance since 2013, one of our highest attended years with 19 competitors, and (I think) 6th place finish (up 2). #purpleandproud@UoMSport@XXIManchester
Last but not least, Bronze for Gareth and gold for @XXIManchester club member @drsb1996 in Senior Kata! Promising stuff for BUCS next week ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ
@SOFacilitation We were competing in Nottingham, and BUCS next weekend is in Sheffield - although I'm not sure how much racing we'll be doing as the karate club! ๐
Silver for Virginia and Bronze for Anisia in Novice Kumite - unfortunately no result for James. No seniors competing in Kumite today so next up - Kata ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ
Absolutely fantastic event today with @UniofLivKarate and @LUUKarate - huge thank you to everyone who made it happen. Finished an hour ahead of schedule as well ๐๐๐ hopefully many photos to come...
Tonight we host a friendly competition between us @UniofLivKarate and @LUUKarate ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ Part of preparation for BUCS and the Christie Cup next semester. Ganbatte! @UoMSport
Update on the KUGB student nationals: Aaron Temmen in Kumite and Kata finals, Anisia Spyrolari into Kata finals, and Eric Owusu and Fransisco Barros into Kumite finals!
Hit our membership target for the year - highest numbers in 5 years ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ 50/50 split of seniors and novices, 33% first year students, and an almost equal gender ratio: very happy to have such a diverse squad this year #purpleandproud
