To our Judo community,
Thank you to the hundreds of people who helped make this years “Sensei Memorial”
Tournament such a huge success. The 71st Annual SJBJC and 27th “Sensei Memorial” Invitational Judo Tournament had 725 competitors. We received many compliments from referees, coaches and competitors on how professionally our tournament was run. Its success is due to all of your participation and support.
To everyone who took time out of their busy schedules, who took time to referee for hours, who trained so hard and who sat up in those stands cheering...thank you!
To all the Committee Heads – thank you again and again for all you did in your respective areas. From the early planning stages of organizing, transporting, setting up and cleaning up, we appreciate the efforts of all the volunteers for their hard work from start to finish. The Official's room was delicious as always and we received many, many compliments on the food and hospitality. Thank you to all our parents and friends for the specialty dishes that were donated and the overwhelming help throughout the day. The security was abundant and kept everything orderly and everyone safe. The pool room did their magic and got everyone into their appropriate pools. Table help, pooling/announcers of the pools, presenters of the awards, registration and weigh-in personnel, referees, medical staff, coaches, parents...to all of you we give a big round of applause for a job well done, going above and beyond.
Warmest “thank you” to all our Judo community for all your help and donations to make this years tournament such a success. There aren't enough words to express our deep appreciation to you for your dedication to the club and this tournament.
Happy New Year and Domo Arigatogozaimasu
