The Chat Ying Kuen (CYK) & Tough Tigers (kids) Kung Fu club of Sudbury celebrated its end-of-year training session, with a forms tournament and the annual Merit and Student of the Year awards.

The Kung Fu club moved from Assington to Sudbury just over a year ago and has had a steady flow of students enter its Kwoon (training hall), many ofwhich have trained extremely well throughout the year.

The Forms Tournament was the first event to be kicked off by the younger students - Tough Tigers.
Eight children entered and two were awarded with trophies.

Ben Allen received first place doing his 'Bo Staff' form

Chloe Graham received the runner up trophy by performing the 'Broadsword' form

After this it was the turn of the CYK students and six students entered and the results were as follows:

In first place was Richard Taggart for his performance of 'Bear in Roosters Shadow'

The runner up was James Wilson with his demonstration of the 'Shaolin Fist Form'

All performances were of a fantastic standard and a massive well done should be given to all the students that entered as it shows great courage to do this in front of not only a judging panel but also an audience of family members.
After this the annual awards ceremony was delivered and this ceremony is to credit those few students who have given that extra little bit of dedication and hard work.

The merit awards for the CYK students went to:

Phillip King, Grace Hymas, Stav & Adam Taggart

The Student of the Year for CYK went to:

Richard Taggart

The merit awards for the Tough Tiger students went to:

Matthew Perry, Jake Cairns, James Felton & Jack Graham
