Notes:

1. The University of Tennessee Judo Club is hosting its annual tournament on April 22^nd. Several people have expressed wanting to participate. This would be a good tournament to “try” Judo competition. If you are interested see coach Ted (there are a few minor admin things to do beforehand)
   
2. Saturday, April 29^th there will be blue belt testing at our sister school (Hosford BJJ) at 4:00 PM, grab your gi and come support our teammates and get some extra rolling in (8630 Ashville Highway, Knoxville TN 37924
   
3. The Mad Science Adult Practice tournament will be on Saturday, May 27th. In addition to our normal divisions (this one is the Gi tournament), We are adding an extra division (Sambo) division for people to give it a try. The Jiu-Jitsu is focused on white and blue belts, but the Sambo division is open to anyone of any rank. We are bringing in a national Sambo Referee to facilitate the matches and give in-depth rules briefing to all who wish to give it a try (you should try it – it's really neat).
