I'm pleased to confirm that the official invitation for the 2026 WUKF South African National Championships & Afro-Asia Open will be released to all South African and International WUKF affiliates early next week.

The Championships will once again take place at the Boardwalk Hotel and International Convention Centre in Gqeberha/Port Elizabeth (29th April - 3rd May).

Competitors will have the opportunity to compete in Shobu Nihon Kumite (12yrs and under), Shobu Sanbon Kumite (13yrs+), Shobu Ippon Kumite (13yrs+), Kobudo Categories (Long and Short Weapons), Team Kata, Team Kumite as well as Inclusive Categories for those living with disabilities. Categories will once again be divided according to novice, intermediate and elite level for children, cadets, juniors, seniors and veterans.

Our objective is to provide South African WUKF karate and kobudo practitioners affordable access to a professional event which offers top class national and international competition. Competitors can enter up to five categories for a total entry fee of less than a R1000!

The organisers have also pledged to fully sponsor the entry fees for two deserving competitors from each WUKF affiliated federation in South Africa.

The Championship will be held over four days and is expected to attract representation from across South Africa as well as a strong international contingent from Africa, the African Island Nations, Europe, United Kingdom and the Americas.

Gqeberha's "Golden Mile" Beach Front will once again provide the perfect setting for what is expected to be a superb Championship and celebration of WUKF Karate and Community!
