🥉 A BRONZE MEDAL DELIVERY FOR TOMMY! 🥋👏

A lovely moment at training last night as Tommy was finally presented with his bronze medal from last month’s Global Taekwondo International - GTI Junior Open! 🥉

Tommy had to leave the competition before the medals were awarded, so a huge thank you to Mr Newman, who very kindly dropped it in for him so we could make sure it reached its rightful owner. ❤️

We’re really proud of you, Tommy — a well-deserved medal and another great achievement to add to the collection! 👊🥋

Well done, Tommy! 🥉👏
