Happy New Year! It is in the spirit of the new year that we are inviting you to the 22nd Tet Open Taekwondo Championships. Tet is the Vietnamese name for the Lunar New Year, or as some may call the Chinese New Year. As with any holiday, it is a time to celebrate family, fun, and good fortune.

    The tournament will take place again, as a part of the annual Tet Festival. The tournament will be excellent not only for the quality of the competitors but also for your family and friends. Competitors and spectators have a wide variety of activities to choose during and immediately after the tournament. The Tet Festival includes informative booths of various professional organizations, vendors of Asian products, carnival games, ethnic dishes from Asia, cultural and musical shows, and lion dancing.

    We look forward to a fair and fun competition as well as sharing a part of our culture and festivities with you at this unique event. It is through our openness and sharing with one another that we build a stronger future for our martial arts community.

Grandmaster Khue Huy Pham, Master Maryhien Pham, and Master Julie Pham
