    U.S. Challenge - tournament hosted by the United States Wushu Academy

    I thought there was an earlier thread on this but searching 'challenge' is a challenge because all you get are challenge thread.

    The U.S. Challenge IX was Oct 7 2017. I just posted 49 pix to our Facebook album (note that there were already 137 pix from last year). Gigi & Jonny went.
