A massive shoutout to the Organising Committee, Crew, Officials, VIP’s, Coaches and (most of all)- Fighters for collectively making the Tournament so memorable (for the right reasons).
I wish those travelling within NZ and across the Tasman a safe journey home.
We have ended up with these two items of clothing- left at the venture or Sayonara function.
Please let us know if you can identify the owners.
Osu!
Shihan Peter

2 days to go and excitement is increasing as the Australian teams start arriving in Wellington.
Also arriving were the last of the contact trophies.
I wonder how many of these 42 stylish awards will be heading over the ditch next week.
