Oregon City Tournament

On the 26th of April the girls participated in a Taekwondo tournament in Oregon City. This was L's second tournament and the first one where K got to spar. L did really well but K had a bit of an off day. She was nervous and rushed through her form which caused her to miss some parts of it. It was a good learning experience though and she did a great job on her sparring. Here are some videos and photos of the event.

 Doing her form. She was called first and it threw her off.
There are three judges and each scores on one thing: feet placement,
 hand placement, and overall form. 
She received 9.4, 9.7, 9.6. Not great but not bad either.
This is her in all her sparring gear. It's a lot of padding and very hot.
She did a great job especially for her first time sparring.

As a tiny tiger, L got to compete first. She had a judge do the form with her in case she forgot any of it but she did pretty well. If you watch the video, she tells L she did her form as well as a black belt.

Tiny Tigers don't get scores for their forms, but if they did I am
sure that L would have scored high. Here she received her
competitors trophy. We were so proud of how well she did!
