15th World Kendo Championships - Italy

In May of this year 2 Rembuden Kendo Club members (Walter McCahon & Rob Challies) attended the 15th World Kendo Championships in Novara, Italy. 

The New Zealand men's team recieved the best result so far in this tournament, defeating Macau, Portugal and Mexico to advance to the quarter finals. Team NZ were eventually knocked out by a very strong Korean team.

Team NZ returned home with it's first ever top 8 result, and a fighting spirit award.
