TSX Taekwondo returned from the English National Open Championships in Swindon with an impressive haul of 18 medals.

Of these, 14 were won by members of the Bradford club based at St Cuthbert's Church in Wrose.

Mia Lister, aged 14, retained her titles by winning gold in both continuous and point-stop sparring. Younger sister Maizie Lister, ten, and Kaitlin Walker were also crowned national champions.

The club's largest individual haul of the day belonged to six-year-old James Roberts, who came out with a total of five medals.

These covered disciplines in high kick (bronze), pattern divisions (two silvers), continuous sparring (silver) and gold in point-stop sparring.

Other medals included two bronze for Tom Robson, 27, and bronze for Elsa Hussain, 14, from the Bradford set-up, with more success earned by TSX clubs in Halifax, Elland and Todmorden.

Instructor David Fairley said: "I'm extremely proud of our students who went down to compete.

"To come away with so many medals is fantastic but their attitudes on the day and how far their ability has come in training was fantastic to watch.

"There are definitely big things on the horizon for some of these students."
