The general part according to the class divides
into the player according to the age. 11groups including
other style of Martial Arts competed for the technique.
Also, Shihan Taylor, Shihan Bowden, chief of Shihan
Viccars’s branch and twins of Viccars’s branch joined
in game. I wanted to watch twins match in the final,
but it was impossible. Various martial styles are
loved in New Zealand because New Zealand’s amusement
may be few. Kata was point system by judgment. |
