Mini-tournament

The school held its first mini-tournamnet this past Saturday. The purpose was to introduce the tournament environment to all students of the school. Although it was a internal-school only competition. it was run and operated just like a full blown sancitioned event. We had several parents who have been trained over the past several months to perform a judges. The events were judged on WTF rules. The event ran a bit over two hours. In the end winners were awarded trophies and everyone gained a useful experience. We plan on having another event in a few months. Congratulations to all trophy winners.

January Rank Testing

Congratulations to the students who tested on the Jan 15th rank test. All students passed and demonstrated their best work in going toward their next rank. The school now has 4 new Green belts. The next test is on the usual cycle which will be held on the first Saturday in March.
