7/23/07 - Mayo Quanchi took 14 students to San Antonio, TX last weekend and all of these had the right idea by going to atleast step on the mat and give it their all. You know Mayo Quanchi people, they gave it more than their all, we returned to Rhode Island with 4 Golds (Marco, Sofia, Katelyn & Everet), 3 Silvers (Ricondo, Sandra & Natalia), and 5 Bronzes (Joshua, Katelyn, Brooke, Malinda & Alfred). Tyler, Serge and Nick also came 5th in their respected divisions. Katelyn was also awarded the Sportsmanship (Sportswomenship) Award for Day Two. Well Done Everyone!
The summer camp this year was a huge success. From 15th June - 30th we attracted judoka to Rhode Island from all over the world. These included the French National Team, judoka from China, England and many states throughout America. All of these students had a great time and were able to expand their judo knowledge internationally. To view picture from the summer camp go to the gallery or click Here.

We returned home with 4 Golds (Caitlyn, Katelyn, Everet & Ricondo), 4 Silvers (Brooke, Serge, Sandra, Malinda), and 7 Bronzes (Sofia, Marco, Alana, Merande, Anthony, Daniel & Alfred). Even after moving up 2 age divisions Katelyn and Brooke took 5th in the IJF 44Kg. Ricondo Cole was then presented the Most Outstanding Male Juvenile Player Award and it was well diserved with all of his Ippons. Training hard and giving all that you have got will always pay off, well done everyone.

10/27/07 - Katelyn Bouyssou and Alfred Raymond travelled to Montreal, Canada for this huge event. Keenan gave a good match in the U73Kg division but made a mistake and when out, however tournaments are a big learning experience.

11/25/07 - A long weekend had Mayo Quanchi to an event on both days of this weekend. On Saturday we travelled to New York for the West Point Championships. We showed both good sportsmanship and judo skills on the mat as always. Results are posted on the results page. On Sunday we travelled up to Massachusetts for the Annual Chaves tournament. A good turn out gave us plenty of fights and experience and this is what tournaments are for. Results will be posted on the results page soon.
12/02/07 - Mayo Quanchi travelled down to New Jersey on this cold and snowy weekend. With a big team travelling down, it was a good opportunity for our younger kids to get stuck in and have a good time which I am sure they all did. It was good to see so many people enjoying judo as it is a very important factor.
