Congratulations to every athlete, coach, referee, volunteer and supporter who represented Western Australia at the 2026 Karate Australia National Championships in Hobart.

The commitment, dedication and countless hours of preparation throughout the year culminated in an outstanding Championships, with the incredible team spirit and support shown by our WA family being a true highlight.

A special congratulations goes to our Women's Open Kumite Team, who made history by claiming the national title for the fifth consecutive year—a remarkable achievement that reflects the strength and depth of women's kumite in Western Australia.

Overall, Team WA finished an outstanding second on the national medal tally, bringing home 17 gold, 21 silver and 41 bronze medals.

Every athlete should be immensely proud of their efforts, not only for their performances on the tatami but also for the respect, sportsmanship and pride with which they represented Western Australia. Best from the West!

What a weekend it has been so far….. let’s bring it home WA

🥋 Best of luck to the Western Australian State Team! 💛🖤

As our athletes prepare to represent Western Australia at the 2026 Karate Australia National Championships in Hobart, Tasmania, everyone at Karate WA would like to wish you the very best.

The countless hours of training, hard work, discipline and commitment have all led to this moment. You have earned the opportunity to wear the black and gold with pride, and we couldn't be prouder of each and every one of you.

Remember that success isn't measured only by medals. It is measured by the courage to step onto the tatami, the respect you show your opponents and officials, the support you give your teammates, and the pride with which you represent Western Australia.

Compete with confidence, trust your preparation, embrace every challenge and enjoy every moment of the experience. Nationals are about creating memories, building lifelong friendships and showcasing the spirit of our WA karate community.

A huge thank you also goes to our coaches, referees, team management, volunteers and families whose support and dedication have helped make this journey possible.

Wear the black and gold with pride, support one another, and give it your very best.

Good luck, Team WA!

Best from the West! 💛🖤🥋
