steviewaddy82 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Sorry if this has been posted before. I could be competing for my first time in june ( nercous is an understatement ) but if someone could please clarify the rules as i only started karate aged 30 in september. Thankyou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWx Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 That's a hard question to answer without knowing what the tournament is Loads of different rules depending on the organizers. What are you competing in? Kata? What type of kumite?Asking your sensei or seniors is a good idea as they'll have a better idea about the rules for that specific tournament.But also usually on the event website (if they have one) there tends to be somewhere to read or download the rules. Or try the organization website (if it's run by one). If you still can't find them, try contacting the event organizers for a copy.

sensei8 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 (edited) I wholeheartedly concur with DWx's advice to you. No two tournaments are the same, especially when the rules are concerned.Get with your sensei as DWx has suggested; anyone else might be only guessing, and guessing about these type of things only welcomes a bad experience.Good luck with your first tournament; just relax, practice and spar a lot, and have fun!! I look forward in hearing about your experience. Edited January 20, 2013 by sensei8 **Proof is on the floor!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
