IFKKA Interclub Tournament – Round 2

Sunday, August 1, 2010

Round 2 of the IFKKA Interclub Tournament recently held on Sunday 1st August. The Interclub tournament series is open only to IFKKA members. The turnout was exceptional, with 49 participants registered and very good competition at all levels! KKC Karate once again had good student numbers participating Thank you to the parents who took the time and effort to bring their children to the tournament – I, for one, was surprised at some performances, many of which far exceeded what I’ve seen at training! This is not unusual, since performance and skill, improves significantly in the face of competition and an audience.

Full results are listed below and be sure to check out the photos in the photo gallery.

Sunday, June 27, 2010

The 8th Annual IFKKA Australian Open Championships were recently held on Sunday 27th June 2010 at the Debby & Abbey Borgia Centre Marrickville. KKC karate was well represented and there were some great performances with the IFKKA retaining the Perpetual Shield, as this tournament is an open style tournament the perpetual shield is won by the martial arts organisation who‘s students earn more points through participating, placing and winning their events.

The day proved to be exciting with the exhibition of great techniques and some nail biting sparing events, our students fared well see results below for KKC Five Dock Students. Entering tournaments is a great opportunity for students to grow and mature with their karate giving them a chance to practise what they are learning.
