Hickman clicks for Hicks to take three national titles
Hicks Karate School had a great day out at the WKKC (World Karate & Kickboxing Commission) National Championships in Bradford.
The Peterborough club took16 competitors to the event and brought home 19 medals - eight of them gold.
Fighter of the day was Atlanta Hickman, a runner-up in the Sportswoman of the Year category at last month’s Peterborough Sports Awards.
As well as doing a splendid job on the coaching front, she also found time to compete herself as well and was a triple gold medallist. She won all three disciplines in her category.
“There were some awesome performances from several of our fighters,” said chief instructor Andrew Hicks. “It was an amazing day for our club and I was proud of all of them.”
