If you're in the area, come check out some of the best judo in North America (for free)! The 13th annual Morris Cup held at the Burnt Hills High School in Burnt Hills, NY will be a 2 day event, October 11-12, 2014. Competitors from all along the east coast, along with top international players from the Canadian National Training Center will be in attendance. This tournament will be a great warm up for the 4th leg of the IJF World Tour, which starts up on October 16th with the Tashkent Grand Prix, being held in Uzbekistan. For me, it's a great warm up for the whole, crazy month of November which takes me from Montreal, Quebec, Canada to Wollongong, New South Wales, Australia then to Dallas, Texas for back to back national tournaments.
I (along with the other Senior Elite categories) will be fighting on Saturday, starting around 10:00am and lasting throughout the afternoon. The juniors and kids will be fighting on Sunday, starting at 10:00am. There will also be a mini camp which will be held at the Jason Morris Judo Center on October 13th.
