ITF NSW State Championships 2022

Twelve members of Parallax Taekwon-Do travelled to Ryadalmere on Sunday the 22nd of May to compete in the NSW State Championships, which was hosted by Grand Master Daher at his full time training centre. This was the first competition for all the competing members of our school and I must say that I am extremely proud of everyone's performance.

The total number of medals won on the day was 19, with the final medal total breakdown being 5 Gold, 7 Silver and 7 Bronze, which placed Parallax Taekwon-Do 3rd on the medal table on the day, which for it's competitors and our school was an amazing result.

Please see below for a full breakdown of the medal winners and some photos from the competition.

Once again, many congratulations to everyone who competed on the day, with special mention going to Michael Marshall, who unfortnately this time round did not place within the medals, but completed with determination and spirit that I'm sure will see him gain success in the future.

Please may I also extend a big thank you to all the parents and members for their fantastic support on the day.
