KUGB National Championships 2023

We would like to send out a huge congratulations to all of the Sendai Kushiro team who competed at the 56th KUGB (Karate Union of Great Britain) National Championships yesterday. Throughout the day all of the team demonstrated an excellent attitude and tremendous support for one another, which was kindly highlighted by other clubs, officials and spectators.

To top off the fantastic day, we were extremely proud to receive the Bob Poynton memorial trophy for the most outstanding club.
