2009 Cornhusker State Games Judo Competition

The deadline for entering the 2009 Cornhusker State Games has been extended one week, I believe until July 6th. Anyone who is interested in competing in the State Games Judo competition who hasn't signed up, should get their butt in gear and do so before it's too late.

Last year we had several competitors in the Judo competition. Although the rules are different than a Jiu-Jitsu tournament, the competition experience is invaluable and can really boost your skill level.

WAIVERS & PRINTABLE ENTRY FORMS

DATE AND TIME: Saturday, July 18. Weigh-ins 8-10 a.m. KATA begins 10 a.m. Individual competition follows completion of KATA.

ENTRY FEE: $23 per entrant for the first event, $11 per entrant for each additional event if entered by June 22. $5 late fee if received between June 23 and June 29.

would I still be able to compete even though I live in Iowa?

Not unless you're still claiming Nebraska as your state of residence since you're only residing in Iowa to go to school. I've updated the post with some more information to include some contact info so you can ask the director.

I should probably call them, but my license still says west point.

You're probably good to go, but Steve would be able to tell you for sure. I think your license would be proof of residency in Nebraska.

Garrett can only compete if he isn't in my weight class!
