Team OCKicks, 11 strong, competed Sunday in the annual Southern California Friendship Tournament hosted by All American Karate of Corona, CA. This year's tournament was very well attended with divisions of 12-16 participates in some cases. It was the first ever tournament for Derrick B who captured 3rd place in both forms and sparring. Way to go Derrick! In all the team brought back 15 trophies including top honors by Kendra Conger in sparring. Whether you won or lost, remember you're not a failure if you keep trying. Ultimately your experience will help you improve. Tang Soo!

And now for the rest of the results...

The dojang was sweltering Thursday night, not because of the unseasonably warm weather but because of the tremendous effort displayed by our Jr Kicks in the fall "Just for Kicks" in-school tournament.  For some of our students it was their first ever tournament and we're proud of the courage they demonstrated.  And now for the results...

Congratulations to Kyo Sa Nim Torchia for repeating as the Mens Sparring Grand Champion at the 8th Battle of LA on May 29th!  And congratulations to the other 17 OCKicks competitors who all received medals in at least one event that they entered.  Although the holiday weekend made for a smaller tournament than normal the level of competition was still quite high and we're proud of everyone for rising to the challenge.
