Clonberne Karate Classes.

Karate in Clonberne went extremely well on Friday night. There was a great turn out and a very successful class.
Unfortunetly the class was over booked, resulting in some disappointed little faces. To combat this problem it has been suggested to us to hold an extra class in Kilkerrin and after a little research we have been welcomed to hold a Saturday class there. All concerned, who have left their details with me will be contacted ASAP. And more details will follow shortly.

A Few Photos from the December Archery.

Tuam Karate Club Faolchú had a fantastic end of year Archery session down at Total Fitness Solutions, with The Athenry Archery Club. I can't say enough good things about the guys from Athenry, they put in a big effort and great tuition for all our students.
