Kyukido Tournament

Our 2 boys participated in a Kyukido (Martial Arts) tournament a week ago. Our oldest didn't score as well as he had hoped, but as you can tell from his sparring opponent, he was a little shorter (therefore, the 2 point head kicks were out of range for him, but not for her). He did really well though in sparring and forms. He was within a tenth of a point of the other 2 opponents. Our youngest son had a great time...winning the sparring competition and coming in second in forms. It's a little surprising that he won the sparring seeing as how he'd close his eyes when kicking or getting kicked. Notice the shut eyes in the picture...funny.
