Thank you!

I would like to give my sincere thanks to all of the Grandmasters, Masters, Instructors, competitors and supportive parents for making the 2009 South Texas Open a Grand event. This year we had an incredible 375 competitors compete for titles in the event. Forms competition was extremely tough this year with some of the best Poomse seen to date.

We named 4 new Grand Champions for Gumdo Poomse and 4 new Taekwondo Grand Champions. Congrats for an excellent display of your hard earned skills. Special thanks to all our International Referee's Judges and Volunteers for making the competition professional and fair. I look forward to seeing you all next Year for another fun, skillful and friendly competition.
