Rather than making it a one prize raffle, we are seeking further donations of goods and/or services, to add to the success of this raffle.

If you are in business, this is also a fantastic opportunity to promote your business.

If you have a prize that you can donate or arrange to have donated, please let us know as soon as possible. Final preparations for the raffle will be discussed at the next committee meeting to be held at the dojo, Saturday 10th November.

Funds raised from the raffle will go towards bringing one or more special guest instructors from Japan to the Sunshine Coast dojo for all members to enjoy. Pleaes note, that any guest instructor asked to come to the Sunshine Coast would be in addition to the annual Australian visit by Soke Sensei, which is funded by the ICKFA National Association.

We would particularly like to thank Rod Jones and his sailing team mate, Glenn Bourke (CEO of Hamilton Enterprises), for their generosity in organising this marvellous prize. Their assistance is greatly appreciated in helping to enable your committee to assist all Sunshine Coast Chito-Ryu members with further resources.

Thank you

Friendship Tournament Results & Qld Circuit Rankings

Finally here are the full results from last weekend’s Sunshine Coast Friendship Tournament.  And being the 2nd last Queensland Chito-Ryu tournament for 2012 the season rankings are really going to be a race to the finish with only a few points separating the top 3 competitors.  It’s going to be really interesting to see who wins the $300 cash prize towards covering their personal expenses to compete at next year’s Soke Cup in Hong Kong (if they make the Australian team).

Anyway, let’s get to the results. Sunshine Coast Chito-Ryu Karate Frienship Tournament (Aug 2012) Results (PDF).

This time around it was all Gold Coast Competitors who took out the tournament champion prizes in each of the 3 categories for best all round competitors.

  • Little Champion – Ray Winson
  • Junior – Cheyenne Ferguson
  • Senior – Darren Goodwin

Would love to see our Sunshine Coast Competitors going down to the Gold Coast next month return the favour 😉

Check out the season rankings – 2012 QLD Chito-Ryu Karate Tournament Season Rankings – After Round 5 (PDF).

The current top 3 in the rankings are:

  • Raphael Borleis (Sunshine Coast) – 81 points
  • Ray Winson (Gold Coast) – 80 points
  • Jodie Marriott (Sunshine Coast) – 75 points

Looking forward to see how everyone performs next month on the Gold Coast.
