ONLY TWO WEEKS UNTIL TOURNAMENT 2026!

The countdown is on!

Is your uniform looking smart and ready? Have you been practising your kata and getting excited for the big day?

This tournament is about much more than medals. It is a chance to celebrate Karate and Kobudo across the Wellington region, come together as a community, share our spirit and enjoy an unforgettable day.

And there is plenty to look forward to! Our black belts have promised some amazing demonstrations, and the venue looks incredible.

Whether this is your first tournament or you have competed before, come ready to have fun, support each other and show everyone what you can do.

Two weeks to go. Get ready. Tournament 2026 is nearly here!
