Another fantastic performance by members of Team Point Blank! With an 11 member Team competing at this event, they returned with 4 medals.

1 – 2nd place (5 year old Ethan ‘Backpack’ Hyatt), 1 – 3rd place (9 year old Alyssa Ultimo), and 2 – 4th place medals (11 year old Tyler Andrejas and 10 year old Sarah Shields). We are extremely proud of all the team members who participated in the tournament, many of whom were first time competitiors who faced off against larger opponents.

A special chout out to Sara Shields who came back from a 10 point deficit, in here first match, to win 12 to 10 over her opponent, and Ethan ‘Backpack’ Hyatt who despite being, by far, the smallest competitor in the tournament taking second with a big smile on his face during each and every one of his matches.
Fresh from this great performance our kids are already asking when the next tournament will be held, and are looking forward to getting back to training.
