And now a message from the President of the United States Savate Federation:

Hello fellow savateurs,

I am pleased to announce the second annual Manchester Savate International Challenge. On October 17th, there will be an international Savate event consisting of a competition and seminars in Manchester, NH. There will be competition and exhibition fights in savate assault, and possibly Light Kickboxing. The USSF is also scheduling a series of seminars and exams for the following day October 18th.

This competition is open to everyone, USSF members and not.

Sincerely,

Eugenio Traballano
