Greetings

32nd Annual Santa Cruz Open Tae Kwon Do Championship

Dear Fellow Masters, Instructors, and Staff,

I would like to extend my warmest greetings to all who have supported our martial arts activities in the past and to welcome first time participants.

It gives me great pleasure to invite you to participate in the 32nd Annual Santa Cruz Open Tae Kwon Do Championship. The Championship will be held at Watsonville High School in Watsonville, California on Saturday, March 14, 2026.

A portion of the proceeds will be donated for scholarships to Watsonville High School.

To encourage and motivate sportsmanship and the spirit of martial arts in our younger competitors, we will award medals to all of the competitors. As a reminder, Tae Kwon Do tournaments are not about winning medals, but instead about gaining experience, developing confidence, and building a positive attitude to last a lifetime. Enclosed is an information packet to assist with your registration.

If you have any questions, please contact Korean Martial Arts Academy by phone (831) 476-5555. You may also visit our official tournament site at SantaCruzOpenTKD.com.

I look forward to seeing you, your family, and friends in March for this memorable event.

Sincerely,

Grandmaster Sang U. Jin
