IFK Australia Clicker Championship 2017 - Results
/Once again, we had a great tournament on Sunday 26th Feb, with over 70 competitors. Congratulations to everyone who took part, and of course in particular to all those who placed. Someone has to win; that's what competition is all about.
A big well done also to all the officials. For some of them it was the first time "live" and they all performed very well. Still, there's always room for improvement, as with anything in life, and we will always strive towards that. Thanks also to the volunteers who handled the score keeping.
A big thank you to all the parents who supported the event by making the effort to be there while their children learn to compete, to deal with winning and losing, sportsmanship, teamwork, and camaraderie.
Needless to say, we also thank all those who helped set up the day before and pack up after the tournament. These are important components of any tournament, and we always welcome people who volunteer to help (as we all do) with all the logistical aspects of our events. Let us know if you'd like to help with the next one.
The next tournament for IFKKA is Full Contact - from 11 yrs/ 8th kyu and up, 26th June.

A hat-trick of titles for Markwell, and Lund Regan's life long dream accomplished.
/37 organisations from 21 countries descended on K2 Crawley, as the British Karate Kyokushinkai hosted the 38th British Open, with one of the toughest line-up in years.
All the more remarkable then that Emma Markwell (BKK Westcroft) on a hot winning streak managed to capture her fourth, and third-in-a-row British title on home soil whilst also securing the fastest KO in 22 seconds.
More home British fighter success as the campaign's poster boy, Leon Lund Regan (BKK Ynysowen) accomplishes his childhood dream at the 8th time of asking by beating world class Russians and Spanish opponents to take the title.
Other home-based fighters, Dawid Ozga and Darren Chan, claimed third places in lightweight and middleweight categories respectively. Teams from Russia and Spain took the remaining titles making this one of the most exciting and open of Opens for some years.
There was also a Novice section allowing young and new fighters to experience knockdown fighting in an incredible setting.
