Antrim Karate Club

We are beginning to put things in place for the club starting back on the 9th September, in St Jospeh's Hall Antrim.

Contact us via DM or mobile to discuss about training with Antrim Karate Club.

Congratulations to all who achieved their grading on Wednesday evening under the watchful eye of Sensei Terry Boyle.

This is a testament to their hard work, commitment, and perseverance throughout their training.

Karate is not only about physical skill, but also about developing discipline, resilience, and confidence—qualities that support students in meeting life’s challenges both inside and outside the dojo.

We now break for the summer and will return in the second week of September. In the meantime, I want to wish you all a safe, relaxing, and enjoyable summer.

Kind regards,�Gary

Congratulations to all who took part in the recent KNI Open Championships ‘26 held at Queens PEC Belfast.

With competitors from all over the North and South of Ireland, Italy, Scotland, Poland and Holland. It was a fantastic opportunity for all to grow in confidence.

Well done to S. Gui and J. Reid who placed second in their categories. Fantastic achievements.

One of the highlights of the day was having our students watch the current World Kata Champion in action, Samantha Von Lokven, take centre stage and show all there why she is the World Champion.

Fantastic to have this level of karate here in our capital city! Thanks to KNI for the opportunity to compete and witness such high standards.

Some of the AMAZING karate competitors who took to the stage last Saturday at the Karate Northern Ireland Open, held in the prestigious Queens PEC Belfast.

The open saw over 450 entries and ran from 9am-6pm. There were teams from Carlow, Nass, Kerry, Belfast, Dromore, Bangor, Donegal, Scotland, Italy and none more important than our very own Antrim Karate Club!!!

The big event saw a cadet mixed team (male & female aged from 14-17) take on a combined team from the North and South.

Italy took the win, but it was a magnificent display of quality, strong spirited karate.

Here we can see medal winners Oliver, holding his Silver medal along with Josh, holding on tightly to his Gold, meaning he is the current KNI OPEN CHAMPION for his age group!

An amazing display of skill, fitness and perseverance for all who competed.

Now on to the next test… the grading for next belts.

UKA Antrim: medal winners and participants in the juvenile and childrens categories at the 2025 Northern Ireland Karate Champioships, held in Dungiven recently.

Well done to all of those who took part in todays KNI National Championships in Dungiven. The championships saw all member clubs of KNI competing for the titles.

Antrim Karate Club entered some of its new 8th Kyu (yellow) belts for their first ever go at it. They did so well and took home some silverware.

Some of the other competitors continue to develop their time on the mat and gain experience, with a load of silverware including a bronze for the girls Team Kata and silver for the girls Team Kumite.

Well done to everyone, the road to the KNI OPEN 25 is well and truly on its way.

Join us. Now in its 43rd year.

Happy 21st birthday to Livi Fry. Have a wonderful day celebrating your birthday. We found this image in the archives and thought we’d share it for all to see. Surely it’s got better since then…
