This will be a fantastic opportunity
for participants to gain plenty of experience in competition and
perform their patterns under pressure which will no doubt help
prepare students for their next grading. Whilst most tournaments
are run in a pyramid system, where competitors may be eliminated
after only 1 round, this tournament guarantees each participant
a minimum of 4 rounds as divisions will be run in a round robin
style.
This tournament will also make Team Patterns accessible not just
to Black Belts, but also to Colour Belts. Each team must consist
of 5 people and perform one optional pattern, up to the highest
pattern of the lowest ranked member of the team. There will be
separate divisions for Black Belt and Colour Belts.
