SKF KIMURA CUP 2011
The recent Kimura Cup championships were held at Haden Hill Leisure Centre.
This year was the best championships to date with so many new young and talented youngsters from all dojos.
There were alot of fantastic performances throughout all the categories this year, and the standard was so high, in which Shihan Daniels commented how pleased he was wih it.
The Kimura Cup was presented this year to Sensei Paul Richards, who although he didnt compete Shihan Daniels felt it was only right to award the Kimura Cup which he has never won, for all his services to the SKF and major achievements over the years.
A truly fantastic day overall.
