Quartet highlight HKF National Championships

Liam Bollers, Aaron Mc Donald, Donray Greaves and Desmond Cox made the highlight reels, when the Hairouna Karate Federation (HKF) hosted its National Championships last Sunday, September 24, at the West St George Secondary School’s Auditorium.

Bollers, competing in the Male Under-10 Kata event, trumped the title.

Meanwhile, Mc Donald pouched the Male Under-14 Kata, to go with the Cadet title.

However, the HKF broke new ground when two karatekas – Greaves and Cox, both with physical impediments, performed in the Under-10 Male and Senior Male categories, respectively.

It was the first occasion that the HKF was presenting Para- Karate.
