Tribute to Cody Barnwell

11 October 2017

Hornsby resident Cody Barnwell is an extremely talented martial arts fighter and an outstanding community member.

Recently, Cody won the WAKO K1 Oceania title and the Victorian Golden Gloves. He is currently training to compete at the world championships in Brazil later this year. Cody has been teaching mixed martial arts classes at the Hornsby Police Citizens Youth Club for the past three years and has started a new program, which is targeted at reaching out to troubled youth in the local area by giving them an outlet to help them cope with their everyday issues.

Cody is passionate about passing on the skills he is constantly learning as he continues to train and believes mixed martial arts can help people push themselves to the limit. I wish Cody all the best for his world championship competition and look forward to hearing more about his undoubtable outstanding success.
