letter from Yuge sensei
Dear SCKF dojo:
Please find attached the invitation and forms for the upcoming No/So tournament.
I would like to encourage as many kenshi to participate in this event! In
recent years, there has been a steady decrease in participation in the No/So
Tournament, especially when having to travel to NoCal. This tournament has
a long history and it is sad to see it become smaller as years go on.
Sensei's and dojo presidents, I would like you to talk to your kenshi and
encourage them to try and go to participate and see a revival in the
popularity of this wonderful tournament!
Regarding the forms, we would like to compile ONE entry submission for SCKF,
so please email your forms to BOTH Inouye-sensei and myself by March 18th so
that we can compile and send to NCKF by the deadline.
All team participants will be selected from those attending that day, and
according who will be able to stay for the end of the tournament. (Note:
Winning a division, does not automatically place a kenshi on a team) For
Kodansha team, please encourage those eligible to participate. Thank you!
Please send cks only (Payable to Southern California Kendo Federation) to
Abe-sensei.
Thank you!
T. Yuge
