Quite often I hear people complain about the expense of ISAMI gis. £150 sterling may seem like a lot initially but given the quality and how hard wearing they are, I think they are great value. I got almost 20 years out of my first one because I treated it well. That works out at £7.50 a year! Ask anyone who has kids who play football what the boots alone cost each year or whose kids do Irish Dancing and you will see whats expensive. Anyway if you are still not convinced there is good news. Kyokushin UK have introduced the K400 Medium weight Gi. Same great ISAMI quality but a little lighter on you and your pocket - £80. For more information please see here. For absolutely no discount at all tell them Shane sent you. Shane

 Osu!
I am organising a social gathering on Saturday the 1st of August to celebrate the 1st year anniversary of Minamigawa Dojo. The venue will be in Dandelion bar on St Stephens Green, Dublin from 8pm on. Its the only place I can think of that has a lot of standing space in it. This is also a great opportunity to get all IKK members over 18 years of age to come along to a well over due home social. So if you are available on that night please come along. Osu! Jon For the past few years the Irish Karate Kyokushinkai have been sending a junior clicker team to the Severn Challenge (Cup of Europe). Juniors are aged 12 - under 16. This year we will also be sending a Pee Wee team. Pee Wees are aged 8 - under 12.
Senpai Dave King of Galway dojo is our Junior coach and he has provided me with these dates for Junior and Pee Wee Squad sessions: Prospective dates for squad sessions: (All Sundays, so as not to conflict with the knockdown sessions, Venues to be decided) 12th April 26th April 10th May 24th May 31st May 21st June (Selection for Severn Challenge begins) 12th July 26th July 9th August 23rd August 6th September 20th September The Severn Challenge is usually held in England or Wales but we hope to have confirmation of the Venue soon. These dates and others are available in the IKK Calendar. Shane  Osu
