Big weekend for Cook

by isleofman.com 12th December 2013

Isle of Man-based Aaron Cook goes into this weekend's World Taekwondo Grand Prix in Manchester after receiving a funding boost.
Creechurch Capital has added the 22 year-old to its Sports Academy.
The Manchester Grand Prix marks the start of qualification for the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio.
Cook needs to be ranked in the top six in his weight division to be guaranteed a place in Brazil.
Aaron decided to relocate to the Isle of Man following his controversial non-selection for the British squad for London 2012.
This weekend he could meet the man who was chosen Lutalo Muhammad for the first time since the bitter battle for selection last year.
The two are in opposite sides of the draw meaning they could only meet if both win through to the final.
