Manitoba Provincial Tournament Forms
Sensei Jeff Gervin has just sent out the forms for the upcoming Manitoba Provincial Wado Kai Karate Tournament. This year, the tournament is being held in Boissevain, MB.
Boissevain is ONLY 2 hours away from us so it is an excellent opportunity for us to participate in another provincial tournament. PLEASE LET A SENSEI KNOW IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO ATTEND THIS EVENT! If we have enough participants we may be able to arrange group transportation.
Here are the forms:

Last update about Saskatoon
Some of you were asking the cost to participate in the Saskatoon/Warman tournament.
Here is the breakdown:
$25 for both events, the Friday night clinic AND the Saturday tournament. This would also cover the Sunday morning workout if anyone is interested (open to adults of all ranks).
Banquet costs: $15 for adults (over 16 years old), $10 for teens (11-15), $8 for youth (6-10), and free for kids (under 6). If you are wanting banquet tickets, I need to know ASAP. We had to give our numbers to the caterers on Saturday, and they have about 10 tickets left.
We’re Back!!
Regular workouts resume this week.
See you at the dojo!

Hi Everyone,
Just a quick update on a couple of things for the Living Skies tournament on April 4th & 5th in Warman, SK:
1. We are pleased to announce the addition of a second guest instructor: Sensei Sanfor deWitt. Sensei Sanford is a Godan (5th degree) from Millbrook, ON, a past member of the SWKKF National Team, & the current International Kata coach for the National Team. He has promised some “interesting” techniques during his instruction portion of the Friday clinic.
2. We are going to be using the SWKKF’s online registration service for pre-registration. You can find it at http://shintani.ca/events-listed/tournament-registration.html. While there will be registration at the event itself, we are asking that people use the pre-registration if possible. Payment and signing of the registration form will be required when you arrive at the event.
PLEASE NOTE: There are 2 different registrations listed there: one for the tournament, and a second if you are wishing to join us at the banquet after the tournament. The tournament pre-registration will stay open until Apr. 3rd, but we ask that banquet tickets be reserved by March 29th.
Don’t forget that while we are always looking for lots of competitors, judges are always a much needed commodity! Black & brown belts, give some hard thought to coming out and joining us!
As always, we look forward to seeing everyone! If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us!

See you at the dojo!
