31/05/09 International Test Event - Manchester Velodrome
Whilst younger brother Ross competes in Sweden Craig Eden has been competing against Chinese and Korean National Team players in Manchester.
Craig had 3 matches against world class opposition and did a fantastic job. In his first game against China -67kg Craig was winning 5 - 4 in the last round before before being caught with a head shot and losing 7 - 5. He then took on Korea at -72kg and produced a superb performance to win 16 - 12. His last match was against China -72kg and once again Craig turned on the style to win 5 - 3.

Craig has proved his worth beating top players in front of the performance director and national team coach. It proved to be fantastic preparation for the World University Championships in Serbia, where Craig will compete in July.
