The IBK Poland under leadership of daishihan sensei Tomek organized a
tournament for the children '' the kancho Henk Kuipers Cup''

When I came to Poland I after a long car trip of 750 km sensei tomek and
sempai Pavel were waiting for me and my son Alec and show us the way to the
Hotel at 4 am in the morning.
The next after a fantastic breakfast we go to the were the tournament be
held.
80 children and there family and audience were waiting for me and I can tell
you all it was a great honour for me to see this all.
The tournament was organized very well and was supported by the city and her
major.
I saw wonderful fights and great discipline and great spirit from the little
ones.
Also I saw a wonderful demonstration of tamashiwari.
My son Alec was fighting his first fight in his life at 8th years age and he
won and he makes me very proud as father.

I want to thanks the IBK Poland the referee, Sensei's, sempai's the major

great JOB for our IBK.

Sensei Tomek and students thank you for your great hospitality.

A great day with great people.
