Next up is the Scottish championships , entry forms will be available in class next week. Black belts who have not officiated at tournaments this year will need to officiate and get their licences stamped to meet criteria for future gradings.

Mr Hand & Mr Hanning returned to Ainslie park tonight with the world championships team trophy. They were both part of the victorious Scottish national team who became world team champions at Braehead last weekend , beating England , Australia & Poland on their way to a history making result for Scottish taekwondo. Mr Hand also became world middleweight champion in the individual events as well as captaining the national team to glory. Super proud to have these two club members as part of this history making Scotland team , the bar has been set extremely high now but we have always liked a challenge here in TAGB Scotland and the instructors will already be getting their students ready for the next competition 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🙌

Big shout out to Beth Campbell for all her hard work in coming in to teach the junior class for the last 12 months or so , Beth has been a great coach and mentor to the Ainslie park young team and helped to get them all ready for last weeks grading. Well done Beth 🙌🏼

Massive well done to Ainslie park student and Scottish team captain David Hand who traveled to Italy at the weekend to compete in the battle of Anxur as part of team GB and who ended up winning a very tough men’s black belt middleweight division 🙌🏼. Congrats to the rest of the squad as well , the TAGB pretty much cleaned up the majority of the divisions once again proving that we are the best of the best. Well done everyone 👌
