James English finished at Wairakei last year and look what he's doing now...

James and his friends spent many break times playing Yu-Gi-Oh, they were well known for it in their Wairakei days.   All that time has paid off for James who competed in the Under 13s Yu-Gi-Oh national tournament this weekend and won! That means he is now the under 13's national YuGiOh champion for NZ!

James will now be off to Sydney in two weeks to compete at the continental championships - all costs covered by Konami!! If he does well there he may get to Worlds - in Tokyo - a few weeks later!  Absolutely Brilliant James - we wish you the best of luck!
