London Competition

On the 28th March 2004 SMA, lead by Chris Hemstock 3rd Dan and Michelle Rogers 1st Dan travelled to London after an invite from good friend Julius Manyoni 4th Dan to take part in the UKASKO London Area Spring Competition. As in past years the students selected for the competition and trip had to be performing and training not only well, but also regular at club level. As always to represent SMA at any competition is a great honor, and therefore the student must also show a desire and a hunger for success. We left Watton early on the Saturday morning to arrive in London at the venue for 10:30 hrs.
