Well done again to all competitors who stepped up to test themselves in full contact competition.
As Oyama said "The heart of our karate is real fighting.There can be no proof without real fighting. Without proof there is no trust. Without trust there is no respect. This is a definition in the world of martial arts"
You all now have a bit more proof on your martial arts journey, use it, grow and become stronger for the next one osu
