2012 Barrie Bushido Open Success


Thank you to all the judges, scorekeepers and volunteers we had at our event. If it were not for you our tournament would not have started on time or finish nice and early (Grands done at 3pm!). Thank you to all the judges - our rings ran well because our judges are just plain AWESOME! And the scorekeepers were FANTASTIC keeping all the divisions moving.  WOW what a day and it was all because of our you! JUDGES, SCOREKEEPERS AND VOLUNTEERS you ARE our success!!!


A BIG 2012 THANK YOU! Our 2012 event was a great success! We had martial artists travel from all over to take part and we thank all of you for your participation and your support. We had over 40 clubs and 460 competitors at our 2012 event helping make it the success it was. It was great seeing so many talented martial artists! We look forward to 2013 and seeing all of you once again!
