COVID Online Kata Competition - Results

To maintain practice and focus during 'Lockdown' we recently held an online Covid Kata Competition.


Thank you to everyone who entered and to the judges for giving up their time to score the student's performances.

The results are in and are as follows.

Junior category

Runner up Emily Kidby (Kempston)

3rd Place Rayyan Ashraf (Bletchley)


Adult category

3rd Place Andrew Rowley (Oakley)

3rd Place Andy Gillies (Newport Pagnell)

A special award for the most innovative and creative performance whilst still bearing in mind the 10 elements of Kata was won by Joe Young (Newport Pagnell)

Congratulations to the winners. Commiserations to those who did not get placed and again to those who didn't make the final selection which was displayed on Facebook. Keep up your practice and maybe you could be placed next time.
