These tournaments are scrutinized for fair play and to see that the awards justify the entry fee. Competitors can be assured of getting their money’s worth at PKC sanctioned events. PKC Members are rated and an annual banquet is then held in conjunction with the PKC National Tournament & Convention to honor the Champions. Point Tournament officials Certification – The PKC has initiated an official certification program for point tournaments. The head of this program is Mr. Tom Ward… Mr. Ward has prepared extensive tests in this area to be taken by Black Belts who care to upgrade their officiating abilities.
