Amazing 👏👏

⭐Important Notice ⭐

Unfortunately after facing a number of logistical challenges for Samurai 2 we have been left with no alternative than to postpone the event until a later date.

Refunds have now been issued automatically and funds should be returned within 2-3 business days.

We are gutted by this decision however it was not possible to overcome some of the issues faced and in the end we could not get them resolved in time to make the event happen.

We will be announcing a new date over the next coming weeks and look forward to seeing all the athletes under the bright lights again soon.
