Sonny competed last weekend in Slovenia and did really well in his first ever tournament in Europe.

He had some really nice exchanges while fighting a judoka from Austria but lost in the first match he had. His opponent went on to place 5th.

Sonny will now spend all week training in Budapest, Hungary before competing in the cadet millennium cup in Gyor, Hungary.

Well done Sonny!!
