To all the members of "Team New South Wales"...you are all simply AWESOME!!
At the 2011 Championships held on the Gold Coast in December, Team NSW captured 22 Individual NATIONAL TITLES and 3 TEAM TITLES Plus 19 2nd & 17 3rd places! These great results were spread over 13 different
Clubs and ranged from Pee Wees to Veterans & beginners to Black Belts!! We overcame our nemesis Queensland, but Victoria surprised us both to claim the Presidents Cup by a very narrow margin! But don't worry, we're aiming to claim it back in Melbourne 2012.

NSW NAS Tournaments this year have been a great showcase for the skills and sportsmanship of our talented martial artists. As well as thrilling action, the events have been terrific fun with great friendship enjoyed by all. Everyone from the youngest Pee Wee to the most seasoned Official has a terrific day! October 16th was the eagerly anticipated date for our 2011 State Titles, and with 40 different clubs in attendance at the Ryde Aquatic Leisure Centre, a thrilling day of competition was on the cards. Competitors were even more determined to put in a strong performance as they battled to claim a state crown and the chance to represent New South Wales at this year's National Championships on Queensland's Gold Coast in December.

The business end of the season is upon us, the State and National Championships are looming on the horizon. The NAS NSW Round 4 Tournament on August 28th at the Ryde Aquatic Leisure Centre was the final opportunity for competitors to qualify for these prestigious events. Talented and pumped-up martial artists representing over 35 different clubs and organisations from all over the state formed up for the official bow-in. The excitement and the pride in their clubs and their state were obvious for all to see. Sensei's Martial Arts store, our terrific sponsor, had set up another great display helping to create a fantastic atmosphere in the stadium. Everyone was ready; we all knew we were in for a day of 'over the top action!'

Over 35 Martial Arts clubs from all over the state converged on Ryde Aquatic Centre for the NAS NSW Round 3 Tournament on June 26th. Each round this year has provided a showcase of the tremendous talent of our local competitors, and the many new athletes entering the scene for the first time, made their presence felt from the moment they walked onto the mats. If this is any indication of what NSW has to offer, then there is no doubt we will be a main contender and a powerful force at this year's National Championships on the Gold Coast in December!

One of the things I enjoy most about NAS Tournaments is that I get to be 'up close and personal' to all the action. It's always exciting and filled with great experiences, but most importantly, it doesn't matter if you're a nervous pee-wee, an up and coming novice, an energetic black belt or an experienced veteran, the dedication and motivation is clearly evident in all competitors and NAS has something for everyone. Instructors think it's safe and a great learning curve for their students and, as one observer noted, "...it's terrific to get in there and have a go!"

NAS NSW...a force to be reckoned with!!......
New South Wales was extremely proud to host the 2010 NAS National Championships in Sydney. It was a tremendous weekend of martial arts action and excitement. There were some great achievements by some very talented athletes, who used their skills with spirit and sportsmanship. Congratulations to each and every one of you. Team NSW grabbed a total of 31 individual National Titles, including Dean Gould winning Male Champion of Champion! These tremendous results came from 14 different clubs and styles. A truly ALL STYLES event. We can't wait for this year's event on the Gold Coast!
