October 18, 2025, The JKA Calamba was invited to compete once again at Easter College Gymnasium, Guisad, Baguio City which was named Baguio City Karate Championship.

The number of medals that have been won this time were:

🥇Gold - 5
🥈Silver - 4
🥉Bronze - 3
Total of Medals - 12

We are thankful for our Mayor Ross Rizal for his continuous support in training the players at City Hall.

In this time, the JKA Calamba City Team have fought their very best to push through many bouts. Their katas being stronger and better control in executing it. They have remarkably have shown better timing for intercepting and parrying attacks in kumite. Their counter techniques have improved a lot this year which shows their tremendous effort in training rigorously. Their initiation attacks specially in kicks were better compared to their past competitions. Though, they still have to work on their proper defense against attacks as they get punished for their weak guards as they need stronger guards to properly keep themselves safe at all times. Some players may not have gotten better results that they wanted, but they have shown their strong will to still go on as it is commendable feat.

The JKA Calamba City Team is grateful for being invited once again to compete in Baguio City.

Once again, Congratulations everyone! May we continuously improve and break our limits even further!
