11:27am Wednesday 14th May 2008

Kimberly Miles became White Horse JC's first junior national champion with a notable success at Hereford.

Competing in the Over 60kg category, Miles won all 18 of her fights with Ippon (ten-point straight win) to capture the gold medal.

Her brother, Stephen, missed out on the medals after moving up a weight group to fight in the under 40kg for the first time.

Senior club coach Yvette Fox said: "Both have been training hard to get to the level they are at now. They have done the club proud."
