ESKA European Champs – Poland
What a World Championships!!!
Sensei Paul makes an impressive debut as Wales’ new kata coach at the 2011 WSKA World Championships in Chicago with Lloyd Birt of Bargoed SKC coming 2nd in the Cadet Men’s Kata and 3rd in the Junior Men’s Kata. Wales went on to further success with the Men’s Team Kumite coming 3rd by beating South Africa in the quarter finals only to narrowly lose to the eventual winners Germany in the semi finals. Certainly putting Wales on the map that’s for sure… Brilliant!!

WSKA World Championships – Mexico
Sensei Paul narrowly misses out on the medals.
Disappointment as Paul James loses in the quarter finals of the individual kata after a split decision against the eventual winner, Akio Tamashiro of Peru.
The second outing for the new Welsh Kata Team narrowly missed the finals with a commendable 6th place, a couple of places higher than at last year’s European Championships showing steady improvement.
