Big month for young stars
Congratulations to Year 10 pupil Fraser Williams, who was successful in obtaining his First Dan Black Belt (Shodan) in Karate on Saturday, March 12.
A member of John Lynn’s Black Belt Academy in Colwyn Bay, Fraser has been working for almost five years in order to achieve a black belt, and has been attending classes twice a week at centre.
After achieving a wide range of colour belt grades every three months, the 15 year-old is now the proud owner of his first black belt despite his young age.
Father Scott Williams, said: “The journey has been long and ultimately rewarding.”
Our first XI Hockey stars finished off the season in style with success in a Tuesday Night League.
Captained by the gifted Adam Lee-Browne, we won six out of eight matches and scored an impressive 30 goals in the seven-a-side/half pitch format.
After the league had concluded, they then took part in the Handicap Cup which saw them impressive victory over nearby Eirias High School.
Unfortunately the suffered a heart-breaking defeat to Bryn Elian, which was decided on penalty shuffles after goals from Eddie Farrell and Lee-Browne gave them a 2-2 draw after regulation.
Miss Tait, said: “The evening hockey league is a great way for the pupils to play more competitive fixtures and introduces them to mixed hockey.
“We have had Year 7 and 8 girls playing against older boys which has strengthened their game and made them more confident players.
“We are really grateful to Rob and Brett from Colwyn Bay Hockey Club for putting their time into the organisation of the league. Well done to all those who have competed in the matches.”
