dbrillha Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 I haven't been to a point style karate tournament in a while. I know trophys and such are handed out. What about cash prizes? Anyone here win any? What is a typical amount?
JAKEHE3078 Posted October 12, 2005 Posted October 12, 2005 The USA-NKF Holds a tournament every year in las vegas with some nice cash prizes for advanced divisions here is the info http://www.usankf.org/tournaments/USAOpen/ You do not need to be flexible to do a Jodan (head kick), if your opponent is already on the ground.
mean fighter Posted October 28, 2005 Posted October 28, 2005 I heard that the, "Battle of Atlanta" gives out money I think If you wash your hands in anger, you never have clean hands
aefibird Posted November 8, 2005 Posted November 8, 2005 There's a few point sparring tournaments in the UK do cash prizes too.One I know of is run by the EMA. https://www.emanet.co.uk "Was it really worth it?

cleung Posted November 23, 2005 Posted November 23, 2005 In the NASKA circuit in North America, the biggest tournaments give out $100 to all first place black belt winners and more to grand champions. I took first a few times this year in this circuit so I won a few hundred but never made it to grand champion.Other major circuits like NBL do not give cash awards to senior divisions.

mean fighter Posted November 24, 2005 Posted November 24, 2005 Where can I find out more about this tournament If you wash your hands in anger, you never have clean hands
cleung Posted November 24, 2005 Posted November 24, 2005 You can find out more about the NASKA circuit on their website https://www.naska.com and since you are located in NY state, it would be pretty easy for you since most of their events are in the east coast. Actually, the head of NBL is also located in upstate NY. These are the two largest open circuits in North America. ClintFree Spirit Martial Arts Activewearhttp://www.FreeSpiritActivewear.com
mean fighter Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 Hey I heard a really big tournament is going don in the NYC Big money If you wash your hands in anger, you never have clean hands
cleung Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 NYC will be a site for a NASKA event next year. Might be the same event you heard about. Check the NASKA website for more details ClintFree Spirit Martial Arts Activewearhttp://www.FreeSpiritActivewear.com
JAKEHE3078 Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 Im my opinion NASKA is to much flash & dash yuck. But hey thats just my opinion. You do not need to be flexible to do a Jodan (head kick), if your opponent is already on the ground.
