Team Taya had a successful and enjoyable experience at the Gold Coast Open held at the Gold Coast Indoor Sports and Leisure Centre last 4-5 May 2019 with our 14 athletes bringing home a total tally of 21 medals - 10 Golds, 5 Silvers, 6 Bronzes.

Notable performances were from our double gold medalists Jade Macgowan and Ayaan Shetty who won not only their respective blue belt 8-9 years < 25 kg divisions but also the next division of < 28 kg showing good court management, acknowledgement of the game, resilience and confidence. Both were Australian National Champions in 2018 in the same divisions. 

Thank you to our dedicated coaches for your passion in bringing the best out of the athletes and to the parents for all your support and encouragement.
