Seishinkai Shotokan Karate International
2011 Shikon London International Open Karate Championships
Harlow Leisure Centre – July 3rd 2011
SSKI Results
Men’s Senior Shobu–Ippon Kumite
1st Adam Cockfield
Ladies Senior Kumite
3rd Rachael Houlton
Considering the depleted squad that SSKI took to these championships (8 competitors), the above results were an excellent showing in a style of competition karate that we are not totally used to. If the Romanian team hadn’t attended, Adam would’ve picked up two more gold medals in the two kata events that were open to him, as the Romanian men took all three medal positions. Well done to all who took part and especially to Adam and Rachael.
