THREE proud young students from the Andover and Basingstoke Tae Kwon-Do Club have achieved their first degree black belts.

This was after performing to the required standards during their rigorous grading exam.

This was held at the National Training Headquarters of the Tae Kwon-Do Association of Great Britain (TAGB) in Bristol.

Harvey Froud (12), Toby Froud (9) and Eashan Joshi (11) have all been training hard at the Basingstoke club twice a week for four years under the expert tuition of Charles Gellard, 6th Degree Black Belt.

The classes are held on Mondays and Wednesdays at Costello TechnologyCollege.
