Mr Beard made a speech to fellow martial artists from around the UK and USA as follows.

I am so proud to accept this award, but I dedicate it to all my Students, Instructors and Masters that I have either taught or have been taught by. To all the competitors that travel from Cornwall to other parts of the country to compete. An Instructor still learns from his students and instructors don't always get things right we still make mistakes but hopefully this award means I am doing more things right than wrong.
