Our formal Comp Team has been going strong at Five Rings over the last four years. On Dec. 9 we'll be 12 weeks out from the 2018 Pans (March 7 - 11, 2018) in Irvine, California.
2017 Pans Comp Team
We're keeping the year round format started last year AND allowing folks the opportunity to jump in for a 12 week prep camp for Pans in March 2018.
The weekly format will be as follows:
Saturday 8:00 - 9:30 am Team Practice - an organized, focused, driven practice
Tuesday 6:30 - 8:30 pm Int. / Adv. Technique + Combat rounds - positional sparring and full matches
Thur 7:00 - 8:00 pm Int. / Action training
The 12 week prep camp will have 6 weeks of pre-cycle work and 6 weeks of on-cycle work.
Other events we'll be preparing for:

- Adult Worlds in June
- The Revolution in July
- Masters Worlds in August
To name a few.
