Thanks guys. He is in the strictest dojo in the city, and the focus is much less on winning than proper reigi and kata. My son was ready to quit kendo this year until that tournament. He was having a great time for the past two years until last December, when he won his first match. From that point, he made it on the Sensei's radar, and practice has been much harder since then.

The win a week ago changed his mind though. He has another tournament this weekend, so hopefully the extra practice will pay off for both him and his team mates.
