Karate Tournament

A few weeks ago Max did his annual Karate Tournament. He can choose two events to compete in (or more if I want to pay more...which I don't). He chose Traditional Kata and Chambara. Of course they were on two different evenings.
 Traditional Kata. Max chose to do "Competition form."  Just he and another Black belt signed up for this one. Max was happy to get a 9.7 but the other boy got a 9.9 He did the splits and a back hand spring.


 The next night was Chambara. Max's friend Aidan (to his right) was not too thrilled to get a 4th place medal instead of a trophy. I tried to cheer him up by telling him Max got 2nd the day before and there were only two people competing! He smiled a little.
