This takes his tally of Gold medals this year up to six as he previously won the Sussex Champs. Competing at red tag level, Dondy came first in patterns, tag team and sparring.

His final match was closely contended, with Dondy being knocked out of the arena at one point. However, Dondy’s strategic approach and skill paid off as he managed to kick his opponent on the head, winning the match.
