Entry

Closing date:

Wednesday 1st July at 11.59pm

Instead of an online form, we are running with our 'apply by email' system.

We have sent all students a system email with details of the grading. If you have not received this please let us know and we will resend it.

Please would all students reply by email to confirm if they wish to grade. Make payment by BACs as normal. Theory will be checked in class.

Please would all students reply to this email to let him know:

If they wish to grade; and
When they paid; and
The name of the account that payment was sent from.

Please would all black belts reply to say whether they wish to officiate or not.

In the past we have had people pay but not enter, and enter and not pay. This causes a great deal of additional administration. We have also had people try to enter by sending a text message or WhatsApp message. DO NOT DO THIS! Please try to follow this new system.

Speak to Mr Robson if you have any difficulty.

See our 'Theory Help' page, which gives general information in addition to the belt specific grading information given on the 'Login for Students' page.

Uniform

You must wear either a White Dobok or a Tigers Yellow & Black dobok for gradings.

You cannot wear T shirts or club uniform, and you cannot wear the purple Tiger of the Month belt either.

If you need an extra layer, please wear a plain white T shirt underneath your dobok.

As with all classes, please do not wear any jewellery, or tape up earrings if you are unable to remove them. No Fit Bits/smart watches or similar.

Please ensure your dobok is freshly washed (including the belt) and ironed for the grading. Remove any tags from your belt.

Take care when stepping out of any cars to ensure you don't get your trousers dirty on the side of the car, especially if you are wearing a white dobok.

Order uniform here

If you need new uniform for the grading, please do not leave it until the last minute to ask.

We carry a lot of uniform in stock, so you can just ask us in class if you want anything. However, you can also order it here so we make sure we don't forget anyone!

Order

Grading Fee

Coloured belt gradings cost £30 and Star gradings cost £25.

Please make payment by BACs transfer. We do not accept payment by cash or cheque. Pay into the same bank account that you pay your monthly standing order payment to.

Late Payment/Entry Fee

Gradings take a lot of time to prepare, and that preparation is hampered by anyone who applies late. We have therefore, with regret, decided to charge an additional admin fee of £5 to those who not not both apply AND pay in time. This will make the total payable:

£35 for late Coloured belt graders
£30 for late Star graders
