Inter-School Competition on Saturday 14th March
March 5, 2009 — AlexCompetition
Date: 14th March 2009
Venue: Ward Road Gym Dundee
This competition is an inter-school competition and all grades are invited to attend.
There will be one ring running due to the number of black belts – although we do propose to have a section for the black belts to compete as well – probably 1st. The idea is to use this competition as practise for the Scottish Open Championships.
We are toying with the idea of also having it as a fund raising event for our chosen charity as well. This is Dreamz 4 U. Any money raised in the area goes to children in the area. Their website is http://www.dreamz4u.org/?page=home I have just come back from there and it is amazing what they do and all money raised goes to helping children. Jim who set up the charity is prepared to come down to the day and have their banners there etc, but we would need to make sure enough people attend. They have pig snouts a bit like red noses that we can wear on the day. They cost £1 each. Your thoughts would be appreciated.
Entry fee is £5 for children and £10 for adults. Registration is at 13:00
