October 15 Junior LINXX Sparring Tournament Results

LINXX Academy hosted an exciting Junior LINXX Sparring Tournament on Saturday, October 15, 2011 at our Redmill location. Altogether, we had over 50 competitors ranging from 7 to 13 years old. Fighters were divided into two divisions, Intermediate and Advanced, and then matched up by gender and weight class in the single-elimination tournament.

Before the tournament began, Mr. Cucci explained the rules for each division. Intermediate division competitors were allowed to punch the body, clinch, and kick the legs, body, and head. Advanced division competitors were also allowed to punch the head. Each of the two rings accompanied a referee, two corner men, a timer, and a three-judge panel. Top fighters were awarded 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place trophies and all competitors received a commemorative medal. All of the competitors put in a tremendous effort using their Thai Boxing skills.

Special thanks to our sponsors who helped support the event: Bounce House, Dairy Queen, China Dragon, Skate Dojo, AMF Lynnhaven, Key West Chillin’ Yogurt, and Quiznos. Mr. Cucci concluded the tournament by praising their efforts and reminding all of the competitors of the importance of winning with humility and losing with honor. As expected, all of the students embodied the values and traditions of LINXX Academy.
