Along with our hoarde of supporters we currently have four competitors in this year’s Open:

  • Gary Miller
  • Becca Harding
  • Rosie Exell
  • Ben Cadd

The Open will last most of Sunday, with the guys and girls leaving Derby before 6.00am! for a three hour trip, day of competing and a three hour return journey. I’m sure we speak for everyone at the club as we wish them good luck and all the best for the trip.

Keep an eye out for the results of the Open, photos of our competitors and the stash of medals we’re sure to bring back!

We came back from Glasgow with a grand total of nine medals including Gold, Silver and Bronze in many categories.

Photographs from the event will be posted both here and on our Facebook Page soon, we hope that all those who competed will be entering the next competition and that the successes we’ve had will also encourage those who didn’t compete to enter — and encourage the new students to grade so that they can enter too!

Remember to sign up for our newsletter using the form to the right of the website — we send out regular updates on what’s happened, happening and about to happen. If you missed this chance to get away with the club and do some socialising we have many socials organised including the upcoming Christmas Meal/Awards Ceremony. It’s a great opportunity to have great food, good company and get to know some of the members a little better. All of our upcoming events are also listed on this website, just check the Events page.

On Saturday the University of Derby TaeKwon-Do Club entered the UKTA UK Open TaeKwon-Do championships. With courage and a great deal of guile a total of nine medals were won.

Many congratulations and thank you to all others that were involved.

Dan Harris — President, University of Derby Taekwon-Do Club
