New Dan (Black Belt) Grades in Budokan

Congratulations to Patrick Waite and Jake Young, this time for
successfully completing their Sho Dan (1st Dan Black Belt) examinations
at the recent NSW State Grading. Both athletes were well qualified with
almost double the required competition points, and notwithstanding the
short time to prepare since competing in the Nationals, this achievement
indicates a sound technical knowledge beyond their successful
competition skills.
