Amy Reeder and Courtney Meleisea exhibit some great techniques in an exciting sparring match.
The NZ world champs team female members sparring at the Star Series #2 tournament was spectacular. I often find photographing female sparring is not as interesting due to a lack of intensity but there was no shortage at this tournament. It was awesome to watch.
And I finally catch a good image of Courtney on the offensive.
PS: [21/7] Estee pointed out she thinks this is Aramai vs Hamish - whoops. Sorry guys :-/
Courtney getting advice from her second, Luke Thompson.
