Sworn Keepers of the Kizuna Brotherhood
The Kizuna Brotherhood is in good hands – it was almost as if GM Ronnie Colwell knew that the day would not be too far away when the mantle would be passed – true to form, and perhaps you would expect, no one man has been chosen – but on 7th February 2013, GM Ronnie Colwell made his personal selection of Kizuna Knights – custodians if you will – custodians that are the sworn keepers of the Kizuna Brotherhood for many years to come.
In addition to The Kizuna Knights, his son, Andrew Colwell has inherited the role of Chairman of The Board of The Kizuna Brotherhood – an honour that he has assumed and will see through with all great pride and integrity.
In relation to The Kizuna Knights, GM Ronnie Colwell himself swore them in – they swore an oath over the sword – an oath where they have undertaken to honour, protect and to guide the future of The Kizuna Brotherhood with all of their strength and their integrity - until their final day.
As a close personal friend to GM Ronnie Colwell, and an international business professional of high repute, Paul Rosenblatt has been seconded to the forum as a “Special Advisor” to the group.
It should be noted that between them, The Kizuna Knights have hundreds of years of personal association, friendship and experience of being taught by GM Ronnie Colwell, most going right back from the humble beginnings of the old church mission in Tagus Street, Liverpool all the way through to today. They have a common bond of brotherhood, friendship and spirit binds them all.
