 A Lincolnshire martial arts club is celebrating after its students returned from the Midlands Tae Kwon Do Championships with 15 medals.
The Annabel Murcott School of Tae Kwon Do in Bourne sent 30 participants to the Tae Kwon Do Association of Great Britain tournament in Kettering, reports the Bourne Local.
Competitors ranged from the age of six to over 50, and members of the school won four gold, eight silver and three bronze medals.
Annabel Murcott, the chief instructor and founder of the school, told the newspaper: "As always they put in the time training and it paid off.
"We had some very close calls and some disappointments, but that is part of any sport."
