25th Annual Two Rivers Invitational Taekwondo Tournament

THE MIDWEST'S ORIGINAL, PREMIER "BEGINNERS ONLY" TOURNAMENT.The Two Rivers Invitational was created to give players, coaches, referees and spectators an opportunity to learn about the competitive aspect of Olympic-style Taekwondo. The focus is on education, not so much about "winning" or "losing". We wanted to give players the opportunity to experience as much in a tournament setting as we could. We also wanted to create an atmosphere of learning and participation for new referees, new coaches, and perhaps most importantly, help educate the newer spectators of our sport and art. Our competition is for colored-belt players only -- no black belt competitors. In addition, in order to be eligible to participate, competitors can only have been in 4 or less TOURNAMENTS PREVIOUSLY. This event is _not_ for the experienced player with a box full of medals. All sparring competitors will be guaranteed at least two matches. Our forms competition will be "head to head" and bracketed, in a full double-elimination format. No more "one and done"! We take the time to explain to everyone...players, coaches, referees and spectators...how an event is run, how the competition works, and how to get the most of the experience. Is this not the craziest thing you've ever heard of? Well, _WE_ think it makes a whole lot of sense. So, in a nutshell: Education for Players, Referees and Coaches! Competition for all ages, all colored-belt ranks (no black belts) In order to be eligible to compete, participants cannot have been in more than 4 tournaments previously. Medals for ALL participants & minimum of 2 sparring matches guaranteed for ALL participants! Poomsae Competition in a head-to-head, bracketed, double-elimination format! Opportunities for beginning Referees to learn and practice! You have GOT to be here! PRE-REGISTRATION IS ONLY OPEN UNTIL 11:59 PM ON THURSDAY, JANUARY 16TH. ONLINE ENTRIES WILL CLOSE AT THAT TIME.  ANY REGISTRATIONS RECEIVED VIA MAIL AFTER THAT DATE, OR RECEIVED AT THE DOOR, WILL PAY THE LATE ENTRY FEE OF $95.00.
