KEN YU KAI REFEREE'S SHINE AT EURO REGIONALS
At the recent EKF European Regional Championships in Slovenia, our rapidly growing association had five representatives flying the Ken Yu Kai flag. As usual, Ken Yu Kai Chief Instructor Terry Pottage was there in his newly re-elected role on the Referee commission along with Brian Noble, Vince Parker, Dave Robinson and Allan White who all officiated at the championships. After extensive theory and practical assessments followed assessments whilst officiating during the championships, the Ken Yu Kai officials put in some excellent performances with Vince Parker gaining promotion to EKF Kata Judge 'A' and Brian Noble gaining EKF Kata Judge 'B'.
With 2 World Officials, 4 European Officials, 7 England Officials and a large number of high quality Association officials, the Ken Yu Kai Referee programme provides the necessary stepping stone at grass roots level to progress to national and international qualifications.
