Message from John Clarke National Sombo Coach


2012 was a very good year for sombo with the British sombo federation taking a small team to the European in Russia in may and a full team to the worlds in Belarus in November aswell as a team to the world master in morocco in October. The high light had to be seeing big Mat getting a bronze in the heavy weights and the first to do so for a very long time well done Mat.As the the British coach I have to say I have been really impressed with the standard of the team player that have competed but if we are ever to get any real chance of competing with the eastern blocks we need funding and lots more squad training session where the team can all train together.
On another note we have had lots of coaching courses and promoted lots of new sombo coaches so that we can get more people involved in sombo.
Next year keep an eye out for dates of coaches courses and dates for all comps. 

All the best
John Clarke
National Coach
Master of Sombo
