U21 & Junior European Championships, Turkey

Kaizen Central had five competitors representing England at these championships all of whom we are very proud, Jake Langley place 5th over all with a very commendable performance, Charlotte Westall and Heidi Jay on their European debut, Carla Burkitt winning a silver medal (one better than her bronze last year) and last but not least of the Kaizen Central newcomers Gold medal winner and two times European Champion Ryan Jay.

Jordan Thomas was selected for the Championships but had to withdraw after breaking a bone in his hand. Obviously he is still upset but all things for a reason as he is a great talent and his time will come.

Well done to all of the the competitors who as always represent kaizen Central with distinction.
