N.B. taekwondo students compete at national level
Three students from North Battleford Taekwondo Academy got the chance to compete in national competitions recently, two of which took home medals.
The two medallists, Nolan Mutch and Caden Fullerton, competed in the junior national competition in Calgary last month.
Mutch competed in the fighting category, and won the silver medal. He won two of his four fights, and was only defeated by one of the top three fighters in the world. Fullerton, on the other hand, won bronze medal in the form (technique patterns) category.
Earlier in the year, Rachel Zanyk also competed in her first senior national competition in Montreal, and went up against world class fighters.
