Medals at the EKF International Open
Following last weekends success overseas in Copenhagen, this weekend saw another international competition where we had nine Dojo members representing JKS England. This weekend was closer to home though at the Crystal Palace National Sports Centre in London where 70 teams from 15 countries gathered together over two days for the EKF English International Open.
Our nine members competing for JKS England were Sophie Antcliffe, Frankie Carless, Taylor Holloway, Alex Kosakowski, Imogen Milligan, Szymon Nowikowski, Ben Stanley, Joe Stanley and Jasmine Wozniak-Khakh. There were a total of 544 entries across all events and for this competition and there were only individual events making medals even harder to achieve.
We came away with two silvers and four bronze medals. Congratulations to all medalists:
