13TH ANNUAL METRO OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP

Dear Masters, Instructors, Competitors and Parents,

The 13th Annual Metro Open Championship, hosted by International Martial Arts, is quickly approaching. Last year's championship was a huge success and this year we plan to make it even better. The school with the most participants will receive a 2018 Metro Open Championship Special Award and all schools attending will receive Participation Awards. Our student athletes will get a Participation Certificate, a gift at the door and the best award of all...FIRST CLASS EXPERIENCE! Parents can also participate in a gift raffle during the opening ceremony.

Our goal is to run a very organized, well-judged, and time efficient tournament. This level of expertise will be insured by the professionalism and experience of certified masters, referees, instructors, and trained personnel. We stand by our tradition of fairness, honest judging and officiating. Again this year we are featuring Daedo TrueScore PSS Gen 1 & Gen 2 E-HeadGear for Black Belt competitors and the Black Belt Sport Poomsae featuring the Poomsae Pro system. We promise to make this a positive experience for all involved.

Your support is greatly appreciated and has contributed to the success of this tournament. We invite you and all the schools in the tri-state area to join us on Sunday, June 10, 2018 at Rahway Recreation Center located at 275 E Milton Ave in Rahway, NJ. The facility is spacious ensuring added comfort for all of our staff, competitors, their guests and all spectators. This event is a great stepping stone for one day achieving the ultimate goal of an Olympic gold medal. Most importantly, we strive on making this event a lifelong learning experience for all participants regardless of who wins. With your support, we can achieve that goal.

Please give us a call and let us know you are coming so we can plan your arrival. Best wishes and see you at the event!
