On Saturday, 9th December, the final event for the Association was held at Lionel Zeffert's club in Andover.
The course was held prior to two students of Andover Club attempting Shodan grade.
After a vigorous warm up, both Ana-Maria Apostol and Ian Gee graded. Both were successful. Many congratulations!
