We would like to say a big thank you to all the clubs who have registered and completed their Phase 1 entries. Your support is truly appreciated and helps us continue building a great event for everyone.

At the moment, we have 315 entries from 22 clubs, which is fantastic to see.

If any clubs would still like to add more competitors, entries will remain open at the Phase 2 entry fee for one more week. After that, from 30th May to 7th June, the Phase 3 entry fee will apply.

Please note that if we reach our competition capacity limits, entries may close earlier than the final deadline, so we kindly encourage clubs to complete any additional registrations as soon as possible.

As mentioned previously, this year we will be running the competition on 5 areas only, allowing more space and a better experience for competitors, coaches, and spectators.

We are looking forward to welcoming you all on Sunday 21st June and sharing another great day of karate together.
