2025 AAU Nationals Results

Our TKS Competition Team has returned from a week-long journey at the AAU Nationals.
Some earned a well-deserved medal.  Some accepted disappointments.  For a few members, it was their first experience at the Nationals.  And for some, they faced another level of challenges in a new upper division.
This year, our team faced many different challenges and goals, but had one unified goal, which was giving their best and not giving up.
We are proud of our young athlete who gave their best at the nationals and throughout the whole year in training.
We are also proud of the family members for their devotion, love, and support not only for their children but for the entire team and the masters.
