By ten-thirty October 15th, the 3rd Annual North Okanagan
tournament was in full swing, with over 40 competitors willing
to spar
and win. In every division, contact, non contact and contact 12
and
under, competitors spirits were high and they grinned with
excitement.
The day started out with non contact 12 and under, these kids
paved the
way with strong spirit and a determination greater than their
size; many
of these warriors stayed to continue with the contact division.
As the
day advanced up through the contact divisions we witnessed
fights that
got more intense as the teenagers showed there skills in the
ring.
The Lumby and Vernon clubs would like to thank the
competitors that
gave there all, showing skill and spirit throughout the day. We
would
also like to offer our extreme thanks and gratitude to all those
that
gave their time to make the tournament run smoothly: volunteers,
judges,
referees and Sensei Larry who oversaw the whole event.
Cooperation
between clubs to made this tournament a great success and will
always be
the key to continued success in the organization.
