2014 NSW State Open Selections
Yuukan Members travelled to Homebush, were we went to the "new" sporting stadium for the first 2014 NSW State Selection.
We had a fantastic day with some fantastic results.
Yet and Pia, did awesome, it was their first major tournament and they were both strong, they used great technique and they will grow with the experience of competing against other competitors.
Amelie fought extremely well, she was extremely strong in her fights and she dominated her opponent.
Michael also fought extremely well, although was sick from a HUGE breakfast he also managed to stay on top of his opponents.
Blake refereed the junior divisions in the morning, but he had a tough first fight against an English Black belt, he just lost that fight and then had to fight in a Repechage stay up the top.
We had a great "support team", thanks everyone who stayed and cheered for all the kids, it shows great comradeship.
Amelie is the 2014 NSW State Champion (Gold medal)
Pia won the silver medal
Yet unfortunately missed out on a placing.
Michael is the 2014 NSW State Champion (Gold medal)
Blake won the silver medal
