Korea’s biggest ever Touch tournament?

Korea’s biggest ever Touch tournament?

It seems that ITS 2010 is likely to break all records for this “party in the park” tournament that has become a key fixture on the Asian Touch circuit. With nine teams already registered from overseas, it should be a real belter. The Korea Military Academy will host the tournament again and loads of great sponsors will ensure goodies for the players as well as slick organisation and great facilities in a beautiful setting….and then comes the party!!

According to Korea Touch Association’s Shane Lowndes “As for ITS, we now have 9x International Teams registered for the Men’s and Mixed”. He also mentioned that space still is there for “local” i.e. Korea Peninsula teams before going on to say “This is set to be the biggest opportunity for Touch in Korea, so we need to get a good showing of local teams in both Divisions.”. He also paid tribute to generous and loyal sponsorship while emphasizing the sport of Touch is well worth funding “ We are grateful for the support from Seoul Metropolitan Government, Dow Corning, Macquarie, OB Brewing, East West Neo Medical Center, Santa Fe Relocations & Sam Ryan’s so far for ITS in 2010. Please support them ! We still need more support & sponsorship, so please contact me if you would like to discuss.”

Hi what is Korea Touch Association's email? I can't find it anywhere on your website or the facebook page.

For ITS 2010, are there teams registered in the women's open category? Also, is there any place for international teams to train one or 2 days before the tournament?
