Senior Master Charles Birch, leader of Bai Rui, passed away the day before the tournament started. All of the Australian team were in mourning.
Many in Wyoming knew Senior Master Birch from earlier competitions, World Camp, or other TaeKwon-Do events. In memory of Senior Master Birch, Wyoming presented the Australians with a U.S. flag, and several smaller Wyoming flags. |
