Richard – 1st Kyu Grading

Well done to Richard for gaining his 1st Kyu  (Senior Brown Belt).

What a great effort of determination, study and combat to achieve this high grade.
Many congratulations from myself, Lewis and the other players that have admired your achievement.
A very proud moment for Richard I’m sure.  Now he can relax and start aiming for his black belt!
Great to have players of Richard’s honesty and focus to achieve at the Renrukan.

NHC Red Belt Rumble – Sun 24th May

The Renrukan took 6 players to high wycombe for a red belt competition.  Five of these players had not been to a competition at this level before, so it was great to have new players giving their best.
Some of the weight groups had some strong opposition, but they kept at it .
