Bujutsu fighters dominate the ISKA NSW Open – winning 23 State Titles
On Sunday the 12th of March 2007, Team Bujutsu attended the ISKA Australia NSW Open which was held at the Whitlam Centre – Liverpool.
The team included, Karate fighters, Muay Thai fighters and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu fighters. I am very proud to report that Team Bujutsu dominated the tournament across a wide range of categories.
Team Bujutsu ended up with 23 State Titles, 9 second places and 5 third places.
These results are testament to the quality of training Bujutsu students receive, along with hours and hours of dedicated training put in by our competitors.
I could not be happier with the results our students have obtained.
