    Good evening folks!

    We're from Malaysia, and we would like to organize a jam in conjunction with Kendama Day - May 14.


    We would like to seek help from company owners, and anyone willing to give away some prizes for the winners, and giveaways for the lucky!
    Any form would be much appreciated, kendamas or merch and apparel, or even stickers.
    We could always arrange a way for shipping, if need be.


    -------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We're a pretty small community, but this time around we'd love to make the event a wee bit (actually, a huge bit) better, and meaningful with some dope prizes and giveaways.
    We just want our community to smile a little more and have fun, and we hope to keep them coming back for more.

    Legitimacy checks are more than welcome, if you have doubts and concerns about us running away with the prizes.
    We're not very well known in the worldwide community, but are thankful for the awesome company of friends we make, and we hope to make yours as well.

    We're still in the process of creating the event format, and we'll keep you posted on what it's going to be like!
    The event itself will be streamed live, so all the awesome folks at DS can get a glimpse of our (tiny) community!


    -------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Thank you so much for spending the time to read this, and if you'd like to contact us:

    (TL-DR : Help us "Kickstart" our Kendama Day Jam event!)

    The event last night was a blast!

    There were two divisions:
    • The Open division, with JKA Open / MKO style 1v1 eliminations, and the open ladder event
    • The Beginner division, with the beginner ladder event
    13 people signed up, and we had tonnes of fun!

    Below are the winners for the events:

    Chia Zhi Hong, an up and coming player in the scene, bagged first place for 1v1 and Open Ladder!

    For the beginner ladder, we have Ee Syuen Saw, who came out tops, defeating all her male counterparts!

    For the lucky draw, this bloke won huge!

    So finally, we would like to take this opportunity to thank all our sponsors, and everyone who came and supported us, be it in person, or live stream, or those conveyed their support through social media or Downspike!

    We love you all, and hope we'll see you again next year!
