This past weekend marked a special occasion for Wexford Taekwon-Do and our sister club in Murrintown – a joint grading event at the Murrintown Community Centre. It was a day of enthusiasm, determination, and martial spirit.
The Atmosphere of Determination:
With students from both clubs gathered, the community centre was abuzz with energy and anticipation. The grading, led by Master Kenneth Wheatley, was not just a test of skill but a celebration of progress and dedication.
Rising to the Challenge:
Each student, guided by the teachings of their instructors, including the unwavering support of Wexford’s Assistant Instructor, Mr. Noel Furlong, showcased their skills. The event saw a significant number of students advancing to blue belts, three to red belts, and a double promotion for Miss Furlong from St. Joseph’s club. Our veteran members also demonstrated their continuous growth and passion for Taekwon-Do.
Gratitude and Acknowledgements:
A special thanks to our grading panel – Master Wheatley, Mr. John Barry, Mr. John Corish, and Mr. Pat McCaffery. Their expertise made the event truly remarkable. Additionally, the commitment of Mr. Noel Furlong in training the Wexford students deserves immense appreciation. Lastly, our gratitude extends to the parents and guardians for their support, which is the foundation of our clubs.
Conclusion:
The joint grading was a testament to the unifying power of Taekwon-Do. It was a day of achievements, bonding, and shared martial arts spirit. Congratulations to all the participants. We look forward to continuing this journey of growth and excellence together.
