15.01.2022 The Australian Karate Federation would like to extend our warmest congratulations to the @wkfofficial on its 50th birthday! 50 years not only commemorates an organisation that has reached such a momentous date; it honouring the long and successful history of the organisation and our sport, a history full of brilliant and unforgettable moments, and open to a bright and hopeful future. ... A trip down memory lane for Australian Karate: The first Australian national team participated in the inaugural World Karate Championships - World Union of Karate-do Organizations (WUKO) which was held in Japan in 1970! After a bye in the first round, Australia lost to Japan C in the 2nd round who went onto the final unfortunately no repechage in those days. The 1970 team consisted of Danny Ellaby, Graham Kelleher, Illias Zacharias, John Halpin and Paul Starling, Coach Tamio Tsuji and team leader Don Cameron. In Osaka, 3 days after the teams Championship, the "Friendship Tournament", organized first as a non-title tournament, becomes known thereafter as the first individual World Championship. At the individual tournament, only two fighters per country, for a total of 48 fighters. According to the rules, a waza-ari did not automatically win, but went to a decision at the end of the fight. The fight duration was limited to 2 minutes, with 2 times 2 minutes over-time, if necessary. Representing Australia was John Halpin and Danny Ellaby John had a bye first round and lost to France in the second round. The Frenchman had beaten the Korean in the 1st round. Danny (on the other side of the draw) also had a bye in the 1st round. In the 2nd round he came up against the Syrian, who had beaten the competitor from Philippines. Danny won the round to go into the 3rd where he lost to the German. Here's to the next 50 years! #Karate #wkfturns50
