Golden girl Evie crowned taekwondo champion at age of seven
Talented Boston girl Evie Newby shows the high-kicking style that won her a major honour at her first Open International Poomsae Championships.
Evie, who is only seven years old, competed in her new category of under-nine females, which pitched her against rivals who were two years older than her.
However, despite a competitive field of international athletes, she produced a fantastic result by becoming the champion and receiving a gold medal.
The success was just reward for all the hard work and training Evie has been putting in, particularly over the Christmas period.
Evie is a member of Boston Taekwondo Club, whose spokesman Simon Newby said: “We are so proud of all Evie has achieved, and look forward to the coming months and the competitions she will be attending.”
