The 1st IMAFP International Goodwill Match Tournament - The Event By Pictures

The 1st IMAFP International Goodwill Match Tournament was participated in by fighters coming from different countries such as Germany, Russia, USA, Slovania, Japan, and our very own from the different provinces of the Philippines.

As they say no person nor organization is perfect. Despite the flaws encountered during the tournament members of the Team Arnis Unlimited held on stedfast to display the highest level of discipline.



Ricardo Hecita (seated in blue armor) of Team Arnis Unlimited prepares and waits on deck as teammate James Infante stands by his side to coach for the fight. Also standing nearby are Guro Henried Lamayo - who was incidentally the official in charge of the tournament control area; standing at the back of Guro Henried Lamayo is Romeo Ballares a student of Modern Arnis and a Yoshinkan Aikido 5th Dan. Ballares is instructor of the Aikido Yoshinkai Main Dojo - Japan and currently instructs the Tokyo Riot Police in Aikido. Ballares won the gold in the Men's 80kg and above category while James Infante won the silver in the same category. James Infante is also a senior instructor in mix martial arts with the Bacolod Fight Club.
