On Sunday, 4th February, our squad embarked on a journey to Edinburgh, showcasing their prowess at the Meadowbank Open, the first championship of the year.
The SAKAI Association Athletes demonstrated exceptional skill, conquering their respective categories and securing an impressive array of medals:
🥇 8 Gold Medals
🥈 2 Silver Medals
🥉 8 Bronze Medals
Our young squad, after a challenging day at the office, not only gained valuable tatami time but also achieved podium success, showcasing their dedication and tenacity:
Individual Gold: Frankie Coulter | Isabella Wallace | Eve Watt | Anas Omar | Caitlin Dunn | Xander Dunn | Armaan Ibidunni | Bella Gilmour
Individual Silver: Kory Coulter | Alana Burlaka
Individual Bronze: Sophie Hocking | Connor Mccluskey | Owen Shearer | Natan Wojtusiak | Ethan Anderson | Owen Doherty | Nicole Andrejeva | Liam Collins
For those squad members who, on this occasion, didn’t secure a podium spot, I want you to know that lessons have been learned, and opportunities for improvement will be diligently pursued.
We extend our heartfelt pride to every participant. Special commendations go to Xander and Caitlin Dunn, a dynamic brother-sister duo, for their outstanding performances, securing 1st place in their respective categories. Keep up the phenomenal work!
Congratulations to all of our athletes who participated in the championship!
