Only 6 days to go until the tournament starts. With close to 600 contestants, and well over 200 black belts, from 13 different countries it is needless to say that we are very excited. We hope everyone uses these last couple of days to dot the I’s during practice and get some well deserved rest to be on top of your game the upcoming weekend. I know we are ready, and can’t wait to get started. See you next Sunday!
I just wanted to put a quick pointer out to the fact that registration for the Open Dutch is open. Please visit http://www.itf-ors.com and as a gym/team owner create an account. You will receive a notification from the administrator when you can use the account and start registering competitors. Note that this system will also allow you to make changes to registered competitors. The online registration system will close on Monday the 11th of January at midnight, please take that in to consideration when collecting registration details. After close of registration it will not be possible anymore to make any changes, note that Christmas and New Years Eve holidays are in between.
The date is closing in, get ready!
