February Schedule

Team Sacramento February schedule will include two tournaments and our normal practice schedule. We will be sending a team to San Jose Buddhist Sensei Memorial in San Jose on Sunday February 8. There will be a satellite weigh in at Okubo for the tournament on Thursday February 5 from 6:30 to 8:00 PM. This is one of the premiere tournaments in Nor-Cal. We will also be competing at the Vacaville PAL Tournament on Sunday February 22. This is an excellent opportunity for our less experienced and first time competitors to get some mat time and show what you have learned. As always there will be no Saturday practice the day before these events (February 7 and 21). All other class times and locations will remain the same.
