The Shorinji Kempo Club of TUFS has decided to participate in the national competition.
Shorinji Kempo Club participated in the 43rd Yamaguchi Prefecture Shorinji Kempo Tournament, which also serves as a selection event for the national tournament held on May 31, 2015 (Sunday), and was unfortunately ranked second in the 50th Anniversary Shorinji Kempo Chukoku Federation Student Competition.
The Shorinji Kempo Club is practicing under the guidance of university OBs, and students who have started Shorinji Kempo after entering university will also participate in this national tournament. This is the fourth consecutive year of participation in the national competition. We have also participated in national competitions in the past.
Participating players reported their participation in the national tournament to Chair and President, and paid a courtesy call to Mayor Shimoseki. A send-off party was also held on campus.
Captain Hitoshi Kitano said, "The goal is to break through the qualifying round. I want to show my juniors a cool back." He is expected to play an active role in national competitions. Thank you very much for your support.
