I hope everyone is gearing up and getting ready! We have just TWO tournaments left in the 2026 season, so now is the time to finish strong!

πŸ† BLACK BELT COMPETITOR OF THE YEAR RACE

We have been tallying the Black Belt Points, and current standings will be posted shortly.

Black Belt competitors earn points in:

πŸ₯‹ Patterns
⚑ Point Sparring
πŸ’₯ Board Breaking

Patterns & Point Sparring:
πŸ₯‡ 1st Place β€” 3 Points
πŸ₯ˆ 2nd Place β€” 2 Points
πŸ₯‰ 3rd Place β€” 1 Point

πŸ’₯ Board Breaking β€” 1 Point

With only two tournaments remaining, every placement matters and every point counts toward the 2026 Competitor of the Year Awards!

πŸ₯‹ MAGNOLIA CLASSIC EVENTS

$65 Registration Includes:

πŸ₯‹ Patterns
⚑ Point Sparring
⚑ Sparring Sets for White & Yellow Belts

Additional Events:

πŸ”₯ Continuous Sparring β€” $10
πŸ’₯ Board Breaking β€” $10
🦡 High Jump Challenge β€” $10
πŸ‘₯ Team Patterns β€” $10 per teammate, 3–5 person teams
πŸ‘Š Combat Fitness Challenge β€” FREE for the rest of 2026
🚩 Flag Tag β€” White & Yellow Belts, Ages 6–11

🦡 NEW EVENT β€” HIGH JUMP CHALLENGE!

How high can you jump and still hit the target?

Competitors will attempt a Double-Action Front Kick to a raised target.

Only two rules:

🎯 Hit the target
πŸ₯‹ Land in a good, stable stance

As the target gets higher, the challenge gets tougher. How high can you go while still maintaining technique and control?

πŸ”₯ Height + Technique + Control β€” who can set the bar the highest?

πŸ‘₯ TEAM PATTERNS

Grab your teammates and put your teamwork to the test!

Teams consist of 3–5 competitors and registration is $10 per teammate.

Work together, stay synchronized, and show us what your team can do!

πŸ† Who will become the 2026 Team Pattern Champion?

🚩 FLAG TAG FOR WHITE & YELLOW BELTS!

Flag Tag is no longer just for the Pre-School division!

For the remainder of 2026, White & Yellow Belts ages 6–8 and 9–11 can compete in Flag Tag, and it is included with tournament registration.

If sparring feels intimidating to your child or they are not quite ready to step into a sparring division, Flag Tag is a great place to start.

It helps competitors practice:

⚑ Movement and reaction
🎯 Timing and distance
πŸ₯‹ Facing an opponent
πŸ’ͺ Confidence under pressure

It gives newer competitors a fun, lower-pressure way to begin developing the skills that will help prepare them for Point Sparring.

⚠️ WHITE & YELLOW BELT SPARRING REMINDER

White and Yellow Belts who still wish to compete in Point Sparring must bump up to the Green Belt division.

A waiver signed by the competitor’s instructor is required and must be brought to the ring with the competitor cards.

Parents and instructors, please help us prevent confusion during staging.

If your student is a Yellow Belt who has bumped up to the Green Belt division, do not send them to the ring when the Yellow Belt division is called.

For example, if the Yellow Belt division is called to Ring 1, your student must wait until their correct age group and Green Belt division are called.

Please make sure competitors know which division they are competing in before staging begins. This will help keep the tournament running smoothly!

🚩 NEW β€” SCHOOL SPIRIT AWARD!

Which school can bring the biggest team?

The school with the largest competitor delegation at the Magnolia Classic will take home the School Spirit Flag!

And yes β€” the previous tournaments count too!

Although we are just introducing the award, we have competitor totals from each tournament earlier this season, and those numbers WILL be included.

We will continue tracking each school's competitor count through the final tournaments of 2026.

At the end of the season, the school with the highest total number of competitors for the entire year will receive the School Spirit Award at our year-end awards celebration! πŸ†

So rally your students, teammates, families, and school β€” every competitor counts!

πŸ‘Š TRY THE COMBAT FITNESS CHALLENGE!

The Combat Fitness Challenge is FREE with tournament registration for the rest of 2026!

No previous martial arts or competition experience is required.

Challenge events include:

πŸ’ͺ Push-Up Challenge β€” Correct push-ups only
πŸ₯Š Punches & Crunches Challenge
🦡 Squat Kick Challenge β€” Deep squats with a front kick
πŸ”₯ Striking Challenge

One Striking Challenge set consists of:

πŸ‘Š 6 punches
πŸ’₯ 6 elbows

πŸ₯‹ 6 round kicks

No switching arms or legs during a set.

Come test your strength, conditioning, technique, and determination and see how you stack up!

We’ll be tracking those results too, and Combat Fitness Challenge awards may be presented at our year-end awards celebration.
