Gold medal for Netherfield karate champ

A Netherfield-based karate champion has kicked off his season in style by securing gold at a prestigious tournament.

James Scott came away from the South Yorkshire Open with the gold prize. The tournament is considered one of the most prestigious regional competitions in England.

But there’s no rest for James, who also runs HQ Karate Bunby Dojo near Colwick, as the instructor will shortly be boarding a plane to take part in the Berlin Open this Sunday.

The next few months look busy for James as he plans to compete in the North East Open, Swedish Open and English Nationals.
