Comp Team has been going strong at Five Rings over the last three years.
We're trying a new format for 2016 --> year round training that ramps up as an event approaches, then dials-down and goes into "growth-mode" on an off cycle.
Check out an overview video by Professor Tom (5:15 minutes): HERE
Check it out:
Saturday 7:00 - 8:30 am Team Practice - an organized, focused, driven practice
Tuesday 7:30 - 9:00 pm Combat rounds - positional sparring and full matches
Thur + Fri Strongly suggested that members group up and drill
The Comp Team is a year commit. We'll be accepting members through the fourth Saturday of January, the 23rd. Our main focus will be competition in March --> The Revolution Tournament in Tacoma is March 5, and the Pan Championships are March 16 - 20, in Irvine, California.
Other events we'll be preparing for:
- Adult Worlds
- The Revolution in July
- Oregon Open
- Masters Worlds
To name a few.
Who is Comp Team for:
- Those who want to compete (and win) at a high level
- Those who want to challenge themselves and like to be in a challenging environment
- Those who like to train hard and be in a room of tough athletes, but don't want to compete at tournament
