National Kendo Squad Trainings update

1st National Kendo Team Intensive Training Camp, June 7–8, 2025 Sydney NSW

I am pleased to announce the 1st National Team Intensive Training Camp, to be held in Sydney on June 7–8, 2025. I sincerely apologize for the short notice—securing the venue took longer than expected, and we appreciate your understanding.

This training camp marks the beginning of what we hope will become a regular nationwide initiative. With approval for multi-year implementation, we aim to provide more advance notice for future camps.

We warmly invite Kendo practitioners of all ages and ranks to take part in this event. Our goal is to foster the growth and promotion of Kendo across Australia. Training alongside top-level athletes will be a valuable and inspiring experience for all participants.
