Quest Summer Newsletter 2025
We've had an amazing first half of the year. We've had an incredible influx of new members. This is due to several factors including our outreach work with local schools and having some amazing birthday parties at the Centre which have attracted new members many of whom will be taking their first gradings this Sunday.
Our International team has had an incredible amount of success with many G class medals. The highlight being Henry and Luis selected to represent Great Britain at the Cadet World Championships.
Quest athletes have competed at:
- Austrian Children and Junior Championships
- British International Open
- Luxembourg Open
- Austrian Open
- President's Cup Bulgaria
- European Grand Prix Serbia
The athletes have shown great ability and also adaptability when I was unable to travel to some of these events and they were Coached by others. We've also participated in competitions in Barnsley Liverpool, Newton Aycliffe and Doncaster. And we've had 2 guest Seminars – GB Lead Olympic Coach Nelson Miller and GB Poomsae Athlete Simon Negus.
