Even though they were missing their top fighters, who were rested ahead of the World Championships in Portugal this coming weekend, they still manage to win 13 Grand Champion trophies .

Stars of the day were Zac Culpin, who won Grand Champion trophies in four separate categories, and Elliot Morgan-Smith, who became champion and Grand Champion of the intermediate/advanced section of the Under 4ft 4in boys even though he’s still only a yellow belt.

Club coach Andy Whitwell said: “Elliott fought with great heart and to win bouts against the advanced fighters - brown belts and a black belt England fighter - was a great achievement. But I was proud of each and every one of my fighters.

“The Peterborough series is supported by many clubs and associations from around the UK and to successfully defend the title is a great honour.”
