February Schedule

The February schedule for Team Sacramento will be a busy one. We have two tournaments during the month and a full practice schedule. We will be participating in the San Jose Buddhist Tournament on Sunday February 9th and the Vacaville PAL Tournament on Sunday February 23rd. As always we will not be having practice the day before these tournaments. We look forward to the excellent competition in San Jose and hope to have a lot of the less experienced players competing in Vacaville. All other practice times and schedules remain the same.

Marlina did rebound to beat Dominican Republic (Ippon) and Columbia (Ippon) on the way to a well deserved Bronze medal in a very tough field. Congratulations Marlina on the first of many international medals!
