25.01.2022 You should start getting excited, Kansai Karate are!!!!! With todays... announcement, we are SO excited about the prospect of being back in the dojo together. The Prime Minister, made announcements after the National Cabinet meeting about the transition back to "normality". The Queensland State Govt. has made the decision on how and when we are back. If all goes well, we should be open on 12th June. Under the proposed Roadmap, we will be in Step 2. A huge thank you to both the instructors and the students, in the way they are making the best of our online training. Kansai Karate clubs are already putting plans in place to come back in, initially, a restricted format. We will continue to put health, safety, and hygiene as a priority, to keep everyone as safe as possible at the dojo. We cant wait to be training with you at the dojo again. Not long now, thank you for your support and making the most of things with us! Sensei Steve

We will be reopening entries on Thursday 15 October to give those people (and others) an opportunity to resubmit an entry should they wish. Athletes/Dojos who entered leading up to March and who have NOT requested a refund do NOT need to enter again. Your previous entries and entry fee will be applied to this tournament. You will be automatically entered into the draws for your chosen event(s). Athletes/Dojos who entered during March and who requested a refund will need to re-enter. Athletes who did not previously enter and wish to compete can also enter now. Entries close Friday October 30, 5:00pm. The new age cut off date for this tournament has been advanced to Friday 13 November. Once new entries are complete, we will contact Dojos and athletes that previously entered who may be age group affected by the date change.

QKA COVID Safety Plan The QKA Covid 19 Safety Plan will inform and underpin the conduct of the State Titles. A detailed Event Covid Safe Run Plan will be published prior to the Tournament. However, we can advise that to facilitate physical distancing, the Tournament will be segmented into Saturday and Sunday morning and afternoon Sessions. Kata and kumite events for nominated age groupings will be allocated to one particular Session. The allocation of age groups to a session will be finalised once entries have closed. Only those competitors and their supporters allocated to compete in a Session will be allowed access to the venue including the warm areas and other facilities in use for the competition during that Session.
