Dear Shihan / Sensei, Organization Directors:

The Central America FullContact Karate Organization will select the most outstanding competitors from the Central American and Caribbean region to represent us at The 1st World FullContact Karate Championship, which will be held in Tokyo, Japan, on May 31 and June 1, 2025.

To conduct this selection, all Full-Contact Karate organizations in Costa Rica and other Central American and Caribbean countries are invited to the selective tournament THE FIRST ALL AMERICA FULLCONTACT KARATE CHAMPIONSHIP 2024, which will be held in San José, Costa Rica, on November 30, 2024.

We are aware of the high level of competitors in the different full-contact karate organizations in our country and Central America and the Caribbean, and we invite you to participate in our SELECTIVE TOURNAMENT to qualify the best exponents (from 18 years old) in each category, with a single representative per category:

Female Category (in kilograms) -50 /-54/-59/-65/+65

Male Category (in kilograms) -60 /-70/-80/-90/+90

COMPETITORS FROM OTHER COUNTRIES AROUND THE WORLD WHO WANT TO COMPETE IN OUR EVENT ARE WELCOME.

We consider it extremely important to include youth and children of both sexes in order to promote Full Contact Karate to future generations. These categories are NON-QUALIFYING; please check the categories available.

We hope to count on your participation and thus give your students and your organization a valuable opportunity to qualify and form an Elite Team that will represent the Central America and Caribbean area of Full Contact Karate with projection to a world event and the best international competition in the area.
