| Barnes stormer in debut |
|
WHITTLESEY is a hot-bed of kickboxing talent, judging by the results of the BCKA National Championships. More than 300 of the best fighters in the country took part in the championships, held in Corby, but Whittlesey Kickboxing Club certainly held their own with 15 competitors bringing home 12 trophies. John Barnes competed for the first time and was crowned National Veteran Champion (older than 35 years), and experienced England international youth fighter Courtney Brown won two categories. Ritchie Walton finished second in the senior men’s heavyweight section and promising youngster Ryan Connor was narrowly beaten in the second of his continuous fights. Executive instructor Andy Whitwell said: “I am very proud of all the students I took along to the event. Although some were not lucky enough to pick up a trophy, everyone gave me 100 per cent in every fight and gained valuable experience.” To read more check out Cambs Times Read more at: http://www.kickboxing.martialarm.com/barnes-stormer-in-debut/. |
