Record-breaker Daisy takes top trophy at Spalding Kickers grading

Nine-year-old Daisy Darley has made a little slice of history at Spalding Kickers Taekwondo Club.

Master Paul Day awarded her the trophy for best performance at the club’s recent grading ceremony – making her the youngest-ever member to take the accolade in its 23-year history.

Daisy, along with her younger brother Alfie, have only been training with the Castle Sports Complex-based Kickers for five months.
