After the Covid-19 pandemic break, the sixth International Karate Championship, under the aegis of Karate Do Association of Bengal (KAB) in association with All India Seishinkai Shito Ryu karate Do Federation, is going to be organised in Kolkata on Jul 30 and 31 at Netaji Indoor Stadium here.

It is organised under the leadership of Hanshi Premjit Sen, who has been a referee and judge of the World Karate Federation, President of the Karate Association of Bengal and Chairman and Referee of Karate India Federation.

The tournament is expected to have 2,500 participants of high calibre with many State, National and International recognised players.

Foreign participants will compete in this event from South Africa, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Nepal, East Timur, Afghanistan and Bhutan.

"Post a setback of more than two years, we are all set to soar high this year with our 6th International Karate Championship. This gala event is to witness one-of-a-kind performances by the players.

"This will also break the age bias associated with Karate and more people will be keen on joining the art in the coming days," Sen says.
