Fundraising for the WKC World Championships


Fundraising Events to Support Leyland Chorley Taekwondo Students


Three of our very talented young students from Leyland Chorley Taekwondo have qualified to represent England in the WKC World Championships in Portugal. The event will be taking place in October 2017 in Albufeira.

WKC is the World Karate and Kickboxing Council.

Adam Haworth, Mikey Thornley and Izzy Spear all competed in the WKC British Open in February this year. Mikey and Izzy gained gold medals in the team event and Adam gained a silver in the individual event.


As you can appreciate, there are cost involved with a trip like this and as a result, we are holding various fundraising events to support this.

The first is the Paul Green Masterclass at Chorley All Seasons Leisure Centre on Saturday July 15th. Paul Green is the Olympic Taekwondo Coach for Team GB and he will be support by Rachelle Booth (World Bronze Medallist).

The second fundraising event is a sponsored Kayaking Trip along the Leeds/Liverpool Canal which takes place on Friday July 28th. This is a 3 - day/90 mile kayaking trip and definitely will not be easy.

Whatever happens, please join us in wishing these young students the very best of luck when they represent England.
