Hello everyone,
On Sunday, the 28th of January, 2024, our club held our 2024 USYD Kendo AGM.
At the AGM, it provides our club members with an opportunity to review the club constitution, provides an opportunity for our club to thank our head coach Takayama-sensei, our instructing team, and our execs for their efforts for the year, as well as elect a new executive team to help manage the club for the new year.
This club wouldn’t be what it is today if it were not for all the hard work and efforts of our head coach, instructors and executive team working behind the scenes.
This was expressed with gratitude through a form of gifts for the instructing team and the executive team, provided by our club.
We have also elected a new executive team for this year for 2024, with some of our executive members staying on board from 2023 to continue supporting the club.
