In other news, Oscar and Joe Magor were medal winners at the 38th Annual Competition with the English Karate Federation.  Oscar took gold in the kata category for people with additional needs, and Joe took silver in his category.  Later in the day, Joe took Bronze in kumite.  The competition included members of the EKFs own squads, showing our standard right up there with the best of them.  We're very proud of both gentlemen.
