Successful Trivia Night

On Saturday 13th of July, Tiger-Do held a fundraiser trivia night with over 130 people in attendance. It was great to welcome friends and family and Tiger-Do alumni to Yagoona Park Public School for the event.

Funds raised went to support Tiger-Do members embarking on national representation. This includes Liam McClifty, who was one of 16 athletes selected to represent Australian in the Asia-Pacific Championships in Taiwan in July. This is a very proud moment for all of us, especially Head Coach Terry Young, and Liam’s father, Nigel McClifty, who is a Tiger-Do coach and NSW State Coach.

We would like to thank the following sponsors for their generous donations to the raffles and our BBQ. The donations went a long way to helping support our event.

Tiger-Do Martial Arts has a strong history and tradition of Judo In Schools.

For a number of years, Terry has been teaching the students of Merrylands High School. An excursion was organised to attend Tiger-Do. The students had the opportunity to meet Heath, an Athens Olympian. Heath achieved a highly credible 11th place in the U/66kg division at the 2004 Olympics.

The Merrylands High School students were very receptive to Heath and thoroughly enjoyed the visit to train with fellow judoka. The students behaviour was impeccable. A great night had by all.
