West Yorkshire Martial Arts College

Team Wymac smashing it for the first time loved it can’t wait to smash our time next year awesome event 👊😊

Just back from a busy day! Today we took a team of 13 fighters to NSKA interclub. Each and everyone of you did what we asked of you. We all learned something today win or loose!!

Tasha, Harrison and Matilda all gave LC a go and killed it! Harrison smashed his fight it was a tough call I wouldn’t have wanted to call that! And then he stepped into advanced and was beat by a hard fighter! Then he went on smashed his points section he is going to be one to watch, the progress in this young man is unreal!

Matilda stood toe to toe with her Opponent going forward landing multiple shots (just need the same push forward in points) but outstanding effort Matilda!

Tasha dominated her section first time in LC and did exactly what was asked kept the pressure and landed clean strikes. Well done missy!!

Our points team all pushed forward, working the things we’ve covered in team training as individuals. Could not be a prouder coach right now! Every time we step on the matts it’s learning and growing and we could see that today.

Jacob Mann steppped up into the open weight and missed out by one point but I can unbiasedly say that was the best I’ve seen him fight!

Our tally today is
Bronze 3
Silver 7
Gold 7

Parents please share your fights and photos into the group ready for analysis.

Thankyou to Gaz Ellis and Bev Sturzaker for putting on another great tournament our guys really enjoyed it. The clubs that attended today have got some great up and coming fighters and some advanced ones that really challenged our team today. Excellent day can’t wait for the next one!

Thankyou to our coaches Lee Thackrah and Jacob Mann and for our parents for your help throughout the day and as ever supporting us and trusting us with your young people.

Back home from an amazing day at Kelly’s with the tri series battleground.

Your coaching team can’t put into words how proud of you all we are.

Win or loose you guys killed it today!!

Shout out to our dragons stepping on the matts for the first time Harrison, Seth, Megan, Alan and Lev. It takes guts to do what you guys did and I’m so proud of all of you. You fought bravely and with determination and listened to our guidance I’m excited to see where your fight journeys take you.

Respect to Harrison and Jacob White, Esmai, Eden, Rufus and Rebecca Frankowiak who also stepped onto the matts for their first comp. You guys were on fire!! Followed instruction and succeeded. I believe the roof almost came off when Becky won!! Sensei Liam Hinchliffe will be so proud of you!!

As clubs we each selected a fighter of the day. Charlotte Craighill picked ours and chose Harrison White for his grit and determination stepping up into advance boys confidently. Well done Harrison your trophy awaits you.

Thankyou to Lee Thackrah and Danny Mann for helping coach and ref the team did you proud today.

Thankyou Charlotte and Kelly Buxton for all the hard work that’s gone into making this a success hope I didn’t drive you both crazy with my late posts and questions!

Thankyou to our cheering squad of parents it’s what keeps momentum for our fighters and offers much needed encouragement. Without your support and commitment your child wouldn’t be able to do this. It’s appreciated as is the sacrifice you make.
