It is with great sadness that we learned of the passing of Claudio Bacchiega, a highly respected referee within WUKF Italy and across the international WUKF community.

Claudio gave so much to Karate through his dedication, integrity and many years of service.
His contribution to our sport, and the respect he earned from those who knew and worked alongside him, will not be forgotten.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to Claudio’s family, friends and all those who knew him.

Rest in peace, Claudio. You will be greatly missed.

The WUKF is proud to recognise a lifetime of dedication to karate with the award of 10th Dan to Shibamori Kando Sensei.

Following a decision of the WUKF Executive Committee, Dr Liviu Crisan formally presented this prestigious grade during the WUKF World Championships in Cluj-Napoca, Romania.

Born in Ibaraki, Japan, in 1945, Shibamori Sensei trained under Sakai Kazuo Sensei and Wado-Ryu founder Otsuka Hironori Sensei. After moving to Austria in 1973, he played an important role in the development of Wado-Ryu karate across Europe.

For decades, Shibamori Sensei has shared his knowledge and experience throughout Europe and has been a valued technical advisor to WUKO and WUKF since their earliest years.

Congratulations on this exceptional and thoroughly deserved recognition.
