DEAR KARATE SENSEI!
Enclosed please find the invitation and entry form to the SWEDISH KATA TROPHY,
Saturday 12th
of March 2016 in Stockholm, Sweden.
The Swedish Kata Trophy, with its main purpose to support and promote traditional
Japanese karate-do, has today become one of the largest karate tournaments in Sweden.
Last year we had 80 schools from 12 different countries with a total of 600 individual
entries and 30 teams participating!
Our aim is to organize an international event all through and we are doing so by inviting
WKF-judges from Europe along with high skilled competitors in order to get as high
quality as possible.
We use the WKF-rules with the following exeptions:
Children categories no demand for new kata each round and no repecharge and please
observe the age classification for 11,12 and 13 year old! No bunkai in team kata finals.
I hope that you and your students are able to participate in this event and helping us to
make the Swedish Kata Trophy an entirely international tournament!
Welcome to Stockholm - Sweden, and the Swedish Kata Trophy 2016!
Best regards
Per-Ola Olsson
