First round of Ian Duncan Karate Centre and Schools Inter Schools Championships
KYALAMI – Local schoolchildren got a chance to show off their karate skills during the recent Ian Duncan Centre and Schools Inter-Schools Championship.
The first round of the Ian Duncan Karate Centre and Schools Inter Schools Championships was held on 29 July at the Ian Duncan Karate Centre in Beaulieu, Kyalami.
Children of Kyalami Preparatory School, Beaulieu Preparatory and Beaulieu Pre-Prep, Crawford Prep and Crawford Pre-Prep, Dainfern College and Bryanston High School took part in the tournament.
This friendly competition is for all karate students over the age of 4, from beginners to advanced. There is a division for everyone and it is a great way to introduce children to karate competitions, as the classes/divisions start at a basic level that the children are comfortable with.
By winning a medal in a division, a competitor earns points for their school. Great fun was had by all, which was the aim of the tournament.
The school standings after round 1 were as follows:
- Beaulieu (Prep and Pre-prep) – 18 points
- Dainfern College – 15 points
- Crawford (Prep and Pre-prep) – 14 points
- Kyalami Prep – 4 points
- Bryanston High School – 3 points
Round 2 of the competition will take place on 30 September, while the third and final round will be on 4 November.
