A group of martial arts competitors from Doncaster brought back medals for an event recently.

Members of Doncaster Sambo Club, based in the Hyde Park area of the city, took part in the British Sport Sambo Championships which were staged in Kent at the end of October.

Sambo, a martial art with Soviet origins, is a form of amateur wrestling and three of the club's members walked away with medals on the day.

Ewan Lister, who is one of the coaches at the club, achieved gold in the 64kg category. Dariusz Buczkowski walked away with bronze in the 79kg category whilst Shannon Breen also achieved bronze in the women's category.
