World Chin Woo Centenary - UPDATE

To all intended participants of the Centenary Chin Woo Celebration in Shanghai this year, we have just received confirmation from the organizer – Shanghai Chin Woo Athletic Federation, that this celebration and wushu competition has been postponed owing to clashes with many other world events to be held there around the same time, according to the Chinese government. Hence this celebration & competition will be held at the new schedule between November 2nd and November 8th, 2010.

As we understand this new time period may not be suitable to all, therefore will need everyone and anyone who are interested and able to attend to re-register their interest by March 31st, 2010. Anyone who have lodged their $50 deposit for this event late last year but can not participate at this new time schedule will be refunded in full on request.

For further queries, please contact the undersigned.

Chin Woo Shanghai has extended their sincerely apologies to anyone who has been inconvenienced by this change.

Best Regards,

Peter Yu
