Competitions help the Taekwondo student improve in many ways and develop a range of positive attributes that cannot be attained from other aspects of training. They develop increased self confidence and mental focus and will help the student perform better in gradings but most of all they are GREAT FUN!
This competition is designed to help those that haven’t yet entered or been to a competition to get a chance to see what it’s all about.
I would strongly encourage everyone to take part.
Parents- you get to come along have a great time watching and supporting your child and getting involved with the activity they love!

For safeguarding reasons:
ALL STUDENTS UNDER 18 MUST HAVE A PARENT/GUARDIAN PRESENT at the club competition.
Supervision is required for the safety of the younger students as it is not like a normal lesson, you will be responsible for your child before and after they do their events.
There will be lots of seating and refreshments.
Please mark on your entry form how many spectator tickets you require. Under 5s are free.
Forms are available from Master Shillabeer.
It’s a great opportunity to watch your child and support them with an activity they love.
There will also be some fantastic action from all belts and ages to watch.
For older more responsible teenagers – if I receive a written waiver from a parent that decides their child can attend alone I will allow it, however I would strongly encourage you to be there.
Entry forms and payment to Master Shillabeer by Monday 10th November.
