The Olympics Thread

I would love it if it was Okinawan as that is what I’m familiar with.

Would there be a problem with just allowing any type of Karate, just as long as it’s an established form of Karate?

WKF rules, probably. You could be from any style you want as long as you use the WKF ruleset.

Expect to see some ITF TKD guys pop up, too. The rules are similar.

I don’t know if Kata is an event, but WKF allows most Kata from most Karate styles.
