Senior instructor John Tomlinson and two of his students Joe Axcell and Dan Thickett gave the people of Grimsby and Cleethorpes the chance to have their picture taken with the official olympic torch and its bearers on Saturday 7th July at the clubs HQ gym at the Oasis health club.
For the three lucky individuals of the kickboxing club, they will get to keep their torch forever within their family and thought it would be a great opportunity for the community to have their share of the olympic events on the fireplace in the way of a photograph.
John, Joe and Dan were asking for voluntary donations for the photo’s in aid of their charities which are the British Heart foundation and also Kidney research. The event raised £150.
The Grimsby Freestyle kickboxing club is extremely proud and honoured to have not one but three olympic torch bearers in the academy and is a testament to everything the club produces and stands for! Well done guys!!
Dan Thickett, Joe Axcell & John Tomlinson
