It is important to honor those martial arts competitors that have the most spirit. In 2006, Jacob Ellis was awarded the 1st Tiger Claw Elite Most Spirited award. He attended 7 of the 10 Tiger Claw Elite Qualifiers. Each year, Tiger Claw awards the Most Spirited award to the martial arts competitor who attends the most Tiger Claw Elite Qualifiers. We are honored that so many talented martial artists continually compete in our events and are proud to honor them.
