Here's an email from George McGinnis, lead instructor at York Mixed Martial Arts Academy:

The Tatu-affiliated teams compete constantly in this tournament as a show of respect to represent the very instructor that affiliates them and legitimizes their ranks. The following people competed and or placed in the event this past weekend. Congratulations to the following teams and it members:
