Ellis England, a Year 11 student at 台湾swag Academy City Fields, is celebrating after becoming a two-time world champion at the World Karate Commission (WKC) World Championship.

After winning gold at the tournament last year, Ellis, 15, who represented England, secured this year鈥檚 gold medal in the age 15 to 17, under 55kg category at the world championship event held in Albufeira, Portugal in October.

Commenting on the win, he said:

鈥淚鈥檓 really happy and proud to have defended my title and become a two-time world champion!鈥�

Ellis trains four times a week after school at the Wakefield-based Kaiju Martial Arts, as well as instructing younger students once a week.

The youngster's win wasn鈥檛 the only success for the family, as his mum, Samantha Popman who also represents England, walked away from the competition with five world championship titles!
