GOT A DATE CHALLENGE?

We learned in the last cycle that with so many students in cycle, change is inevitable.  Other sports do not consider your needs/concerns/schedules, you are basically at their beck and call.  We never want to be that way, and try to accommodate our team, because that’s what we are, a team.

We have decided to implement this policy:  If you need a change in the dates, you must inform us no later than June 30.  The final dates will go out at the July 13 meeting.  Any schedule change requests after June 30 will not be considered.

  • Use this form to communicate any  schedule challenges.
  • Each date that you need to make a submission for must be submitted separately.
  • A submission is not a guarantee that your challenge will be accommodated.  We will do our best, but we have already optimized the schedule to its capacity.
  • Remember you can miss two candidate classes without penalty.  You may not miss any of the exams (pre-checks, final exam, power weekend, black belt spectacular, mandatory practices).
