In May 2008, Cambridge Academy of Martial Arts hosted the 10th anniversary celebration of the Great Britain Savate Federation.
Forty-seven fighters from Birmingham, Cambridge, Guildford, Lille, London, Malvern, Oxford and Teeside took part in an Assaut tournament. Gilles Le Duigou, President of the International Savate Federation, attended the event.
In recognition of the support Gilles has given to the development of Savate in Great Britain, he was awarded the title of Honorary Vice-President of the Federation.
