Starting with our semiannual FUN Tournament on February 11th, there will be opportunities all across the state.
The MTC FUN tournament is for MTC students only and is held right here in our dojang. The cost to enter is just $25 (less than 1/2 the cost of other tournaments). It is the perfect event for tournament first timers and for everyone who wants to bang the dust off before the Montana Spring Tournament season gets under way. We also use this as a time to teach the martial artists, referees, coaches, parents and tournament staff how best to fill their roll or multiple rolls. Sign ups will be available later this month (watch the bulletin boards) and will come out int he February Newsletter, but mark your calendars now. Every family who signs up in advance to volunteer (and volunteers) will get a $5 per hour credit toward the cost of their FUN Tournament registration.
Also this spring MTC students are preparing for tournaments large and small in Montana and across the country. There will be Montana Tournaments in Livingston, Great Falls and Billings. With us co-hosting the state tournament in Missoula with the MTAcademy. The dates for these tournaments are not set yet, but stay tuned, information will be available soon.
We encourage ALL of our student to participate in tournaments. It is the greatest opportunity to experience a safe but challenging test that each martial artist will come away with a huge leap in personal growth.
We also have groups preparing for the US Open in Las Vegas, National Collegiates at MIT in Boston and Nationals in Dallas. This year's Nationals team will consist of martial artists of all ages and belt levels from the 6 year old yellow belt to the 44 year old black belt.
