Word Championship Success...oh yessssss.

Triumphant Team Scotland

Centre Stage with Team GB

Alligator Dundee...yes its real and very very angry lol.

Exciting times for Dundee Wildcats Taekwon Do Students. After our amazing success at the British Championships in Kidderminster earlier this year 8 of our members were invited to be part of Team GB and to compete as team members at the prestigious USA World Championships being held in Orlando, Florida.

They competed in the team events for Team GB on the Saturday and as individuals for Team Scotland on the Sunday winning 28 medals over the two days, there are now 4 new World Champions in our Dojang. We won 7 Gold, 18 Silver and 3 Bronze....wow.

The competition was on foreign soil and it was fierce but fair and no prisoners were taken by any side but after the competition we were all friends. Dundee Wildcats are so proud of our colleagues, we knew they would do well but their success is unprecedented and to be honest phenomenal says Head Coach Unity Kane.

STF President Gerry Cahill is so proud of everyone of them.They worked so hard all year training for this competition and their efforts paid off bigtime. The Dojang motto is train hard, fight easy. This was proven conclusively in the USA. Praise came from all quarters and we have been invited back to compete in Texas next year. Watch this space.
