Economy gonna hit the tournament circuit?
Well, we have been training a few guys to compete in 09 in a few Sanda/Sanshou fight here in TX and nearby states. They are coming along great and getting some good conditioning/training. Well wouldn't you know it, tough times hit. Seems the entrance fee is gonna be a bit out of the budget. Let alone some travel expenses.
I believe these guys would've been good and would do well in their respective weight class. Kinda dissapointing for them and for me as well. I think they were looking forward to really trying out their skills. And I was looking forward to see if my coaching is actually worth squat. Kinda selfish, I know. At least one, maybe 2 of them will be able to still compete.
Luckily our school enrollment is still holding steady.
Wonder if the tournament circuit will be hit with this credit crunch due to the lack of participation stemming from the lack of disposable income? What do you guys think?
