Karate-Officials complete officiating course |06 June 2013

The officials were presented with their certificates during the SKF National Championship held last Saturday at the Omnisports Gym, Roche Caïman, in the presence of SKF chairman Shihan Donald Celestine and Sensei Escalente and karatekas from some local schools.

The eight officials who were presented with class A and class B certificates are Percy Vidot, Gretel Valentin, Christopher Hoareau and Jocelin Cupidon (class A), David Esparon, Kenneth Mirabeau, Andy Allisop and Andre Lucas (class B).

Gretel Valentin is the first local female WKF referee produced by the SKF and this is surely a sign of encouragement for other females to join the sport.
