Dear Instructor and Friend,

I am honored to invite you and your school to attend an important fundraisingtournament that will help our association come up to the forefront. This year mytournament will offer competition for adults and children. There will be manychildren’s divisions to ensure a most efficient and wonderful experience for thosewho attend. Your kids and their parents will not be disappointed.

We will begin the tournament promptly at 11:30 AM sharp; bringing back the oldtradition of holding black belt forms first. It will be very important for your blackbelts who will be competing to be on the floor and dressed by 10:30 AM. I wouldalso appreciate it if any black belts from your school coming to help judge alsobe on the floor at this time. This will assure that the tournament starts on timeand finishes very quickly.

As you may already know, we are hosting the National and InternationalTraditional Tang Soo Do Championship at the beautiful Lowes Hotel incenter city Philadelphia on July 4th and 5th 2014. This endeavor hastremendous cost and startup expenses. With your school’s help, this Januarytournament will give us a big kick-start. Encourage your students to help withtheir support. Our association is one of the best, and the upcomingchampionship in July will hopefully show it.

Yours in the Martial Arts,

SAMUEL S. WALLACE

Smaller Divisions

I will order medals for an additional 10 divisions. This will allow me to makelarger divisions into smaller ones. It will also allow me to separate the blackbelt children from the red belts.

Competitors will be awarded points for where they finish in their division: 5points for 1st place, 3 points for 2nd, and 1 point for 3rd.
