A DAD and daughter duo teamed up to help Droitwich Taekwon-Do claim a collection of medals in a recent competition.
Robert Clark and his eight-year-old daughter, Ellie, were pleased to bring home three medals between them at the regional Tangfoodo competition in Coventry.
Ellie, who has been training with her dad for a couple of months to get ready for the event, was awarded silver in both the patterns and sparring categories. It was actually the second time she had ever competed.
Robert was also awarded a bronze medal in the patterns category – this was his first competition ever.
Sally Gleaves, the club’s owner and head instructor, said: “They’re not our martial arts but we thought we would give it a go and it went really well.
“They thoroughly enjoyed it and they can not wait for the next one.
“It was quite a new experience for the, and other members also came down to watch and support it – it was really nice.”
The school trains on Tuesday and Thursday from 7pm until 8pm at physique fitness.
Anyone interested in giving it go can try out a months free training to see how they get along with it.
