News....and a whole lot more....

NEWS:

Lui Suzuki has been accepted to the SCKF youth program. This program was created to prepare younger Kenshi, that have shown potential to make the SCKF Team, for the next All US Kendo Championships. Although he will not get to compete this time around, he has been training with the SCKF Team and will get to travel with the team to Las Vegas for the Tournament. Hoskokawa Yuji Sensei wants all of us to know that Lui was picked because as a result of his hard work. He was ineligible to try out for the SCKF Team, yet he practiced with the Team on Sunday mornings. This should serve as a reminder that hard work in Kendo will pay off.
