A very proud day for our students with our club grading so nice to sit and watch just how well these guys are progressing! And feel truly lucky to have such a brilliant bunch! Well done to all! 👊🥋👊

A few weekends ago we took 4 athletes to the EKF INTERNATIONAL OPEN in London. The boys thought incredibly well and made the club proud! Caleb Gilbert - gold Finley Jordan - silver bronze Joao Carvahlo - bronze Diego Carvahlo just missing out on bronze in repechage final. Well done guys 🥋👊🥋

With an extremely heavy heart we are so sad to say goodbye to 2 fantastic students, Maya and Matei.
