Special Prizes:
Traditionally in Kyokushin Karate, the reward is the challenge of taking part; testing one’s skills and courage and hoping for a trophy that symbolises the sacrifices of training. However, to promote the very best aspects of Kyokushin Karate, a financial incentive of £1,000 GBP per fighter will be awarded to both the “Best Technical Fighter” and the “Most Spirited Fighter”.
