Grandmaster Howard’s students had success at the ITF-Irish Open Taekwon-Do Championships in Tallaght recently, when they took

home 4 gold, 1 silver and 1 bronze between them.

In the black belt division; Mr Leon McSherry took silver in the 3rd/4th degree pattern, while Mr Adam Fox smashed a total of

10 boards to take the gold in the Power event.

In the colour belt sections; Alex Nowak swept the board with gold in patterns, sparring and special technique, while

Laura O’Donoghue took home a bronze in her sparring event.

Well done to all those who took part. The next event is the ITF-Ireland Cup on the 31st March 2012 in Cork city. Hopefully

we’ll have a large number of competitors from the our dojang.
