2012 Bangkok Open

What an awesome weekend for 11 of our guys (and girls), who competed in the 2012 Bangkok Open. After a grueling 2 day event, Kreation brought home 10 medals (1 Gold, 5 Silvers, and 4 Bronzes):

Gold - Grappling, Intermediate, Men, Rooster
Silver - BJJ, Purple, Men, Master
Silver - BJJ, Blue, Men, Light Feather

Silver - Grappling, Novice, Women, Light
Bronze - BJJ, Purple, Men, Heavy
Bronze - BJJ, White, Men, Light Feather

Congrats to EVERYONE who competed. It's great experiencing such camaraderie, as we cheered one another on, through victory and through defeat. We went to compete and fought our hearts out, and brought home some medals. More important than the medals is knowing that on such a big event, Kreation was not out of place. We belong there. It's also a joy watching Scott compete for the first time in a long time. And kind of bittersweet competing alongside Dominic, as this is his last outing with us, for he's leaving Singapore for Maldives soon.

Kudos to coach Chance Wanlass.

And kSudos to team manager Nafeesa.

a nice photo of scott watching the action, taken by aziz.

See you again, Aziz!

This week, Kreation bids goodbye to Aziz as he embarks on his travelling til 2010.

Since joining our club 2 years ago, Aziz has been a real asset. Always a tough, helpful and diligent training partner, Aziz's skills have grown leaps and bounds. One who doesn't shy from competitions, it was at one of the local tournaments that Aziz received his blue belt from Cristiano, after a dominant showing.

While it's sad to see him leave, we wish him all the best in the coming months, travelling and training. And good luck on your next tournament at Manila!

Til we meet again, buddy!


Aziz's last training with us til we see him again in January. (Basically this means we tortured him)
