Phew ! This years Team Sparring event was a fantastic success. 25 bouts of action and drama, packed full of surprises and upsets. All the Wicker Camp students that took part demonstrated excellent Thai-Boxing skills, a strong fighting spirit and superb fitness.
This years Wicker Camp Cup was eventually won by the BLUE Team, so congratulations to them in a nail-biting final that saw both teams hungry for victory. We had a brilliant spectator turn out too, with a couple of hundred supporters to cheer them all on. We had a delicious selection of food on sale that sold out within 2 hours ! The Thai food was made by Phung and went down very well.
The prestigious Awards ceremony had a few emotional "highs" too. Imran Khan, Captain of the Red team, won our FIGHTER of the YEAR Award. Mehdi was awarded MOST IMPROVED FIGHTER, ALI was awarded a certificate for over 20 years LOYALTY and COMMITTMENT to MuayThai and Wicker Camp, and the talented Westley Smith won the INSTRUCTOR of the YEAR Award !!!
We managed to raise £1,144.00 for St. Luke's Hospice in Sheffield, and a big thanks to everyone for supporting this worthy cause. Trix, as always, played a massive role in organising the whole event so an extra big thank you to her.
