The Tiger Claw Elite Panel of JudgesA monumental task to manage, but thanks to Dave Sklar, the Kick International Team of National Referees, coordinators, scorekeepers and volunteers, the event ran very smoothly.  Everywhere you looked there was a competition underway.  The floor swayed with the movement of people, and yet it was a well-coordinated and monitored competition.
