In Sparring James won his first round and lost the second round to Louis Griffiths, the eventual winner of the category.

Photo Happy 30s Birthday to Scott Hoskins 1 December 2007 Colour Belt Grading Results Glyn Robbins - Yellow Tag John Wong - Yellow Belt James Nguyen - Yellow Belt Scott Hoskins - Yellow Belt Jennifer Tu - Green Belt (O+ level pass) ITF England 2007 Championships Results Jennifer Tu - Champion Under 13 Yellow/Green Belt Patterns and Silver Medallist Pee-Wee Sparring (though I have seen the video of her final fight with the green belt male competitor and I don't think she lost it - all her kicks were strong and well on target, unlike her opponent's multiple kicks, but for some reason she decided not to move and therefore made it look untidy and a bit messy with hands) English Championships Results Two juniors competed on 3 November 2007 and both did very well. Nini Tu - Gold Under 13's Red Belt Patterns Photo1 Jennifer Tu - Gold Under 13's Pee-Wee Patterns; Bronze Under 13's Pee-Wee Sparring Photo 2 IIC in Belgium Report by Elena Shutova and Jennifer Peña The most important thing we learnt from the International Instructors Course in Belgium was NEVER DRIVE IN BRUSSELS WITHOUT A MAP OR GPS. Apparently, all the roads in Belgium lead to Brussels and NONE goes out.... ever seen Ground Dog Day movie? - well that what happens when you drive on the RING road... and if you get desperate do not bother asking the locals for directions - they will send you the wrong way... well we also learnt some TaeKwon-Do technical stuff :) Press / Media Press Release in East End Life 3/12/2007 http://www.towerhamlets.gov.uk/templates/news/detail.cfm?newsid=8528 BBC Video Nations http://www.bbc.co.uk/london/content/articles/2007/08/10/london_tkd_video_feature.shtml You need Real Player to watch videos on BBC website ( http://uk.real.com/player/more - download here)
