14 athletes from BC competed as part of Team Canada at the PKF Junior Karate Championships in São Paolo, Brazil at the end of August. We honour their dedication and commitment and would especially like to recognize the accomplishments of these four athletes who achieved podium finishes.
Clockwise from top, left: Anisha Niijar (Bronze, Junior Kumite Female -59kg); Tiffany Jiloca (Bronze, Junior Kata Female); Tamiris McNern (Bronze, Cadet Kumite Female -61kg ); Oonah Gamboa (Bronze, U21 Kata Female)
We would also like to recognize the achievements of Ella Crowle, who secured a spot at the 2025 Pan American Youth Games through her outstanding performance in the Pan American Youth Games Qualifier which took place in Asuncion, Brazil, at the end of August.
Well done all!
