“I am inviting all my students to come out,” said the Grandmaster. “Even those that normally train at Sister Marie Laurence. That school has been damaged, so we will all train in St. Peters.”
The Grandmaster continued, “It is important for the children to get back to a normal routine. Even the adults can use a little stress relief.”
Grandmaster Liu had been preparing two team to travel in October. One squad was set to compete in the Dominican Republic this weekend and another team was to travel to Florida for the ESPN Championships.
