A big congratulations to Fermoy karate club members Alison Hennessy, Rebecca Walsh and Shane Hurley who traveled to Zrenjanin, Serbia (the 2021 European city of sport) for the world Shotokan Karate championships. After a rough start on Saturday, Sunday saw better results with Rebecca taking a win over a solid Bosnian opponent with a brilliant performance before bowing out of the tournament. Rebecca showed great skill and gained valuable experience in her bouts and no doubt will be back next year. Next up was Alison Hennessy taking a bronze medal in the under 18 jiyu ippon kumite event, losing to the eventual winner in the semi final in what was a closely contested bout with a razor thin margin between the two. This bronze medal was the first of the championships for team Ireland. Alison later went on to take a bronze medal in the women’s masters event, the most prestigious event of the tournament making her the youngest person to medal in this event. An outstanding achievement and a sign of great things to come in the future. Shane Hurley also took a silver medal in the men’s masters championship to add to Ireland’s medal tally. Overall an exceptionally successful championships and a great return for team Ireland after a long absence from competition. A big thank you to IJKA Ireland chief instructor Brian Toomey for preparing the team for these championships and the organisers of the championships for putting together a very well run event.
