A successful Saturday with the historic Norwegian Championship in Full Contact Karate in Kristiansand has been completed, with 30 clubs and over 160 athletes!
A great day from morning to night with skilled athletes, judges and support staff behind them. We hope this day will be remembered for a long time by all involved. We as a club are proud of the completion of the National Championships and the achievements of the athletes that were shown.
We must extend a big thank you to the crew who have rigged up and down, as well as helped us so that we could carry out the event.
We must also say a big thank you to our wonderful NM sponsors!!
We are so incredibly grateful. You guys are absolutely amazing.
Agder Taxi
transported all athletes from the Airport to the hotel completely free of charge.
Egon Restaurant
sponsored dinner for judges on Friday, and a lovely lunch on Saturday.
Macron Norway
sponsored with graphic work, prize for best technique and quick win, as well as a goodie bag.
SMAI Scandinavia
sponsored the best man and best woman with gift vouchers for equipment.
You put the finishing touches on it, which made the athletes feel like stars and well taken care of, as if they were at an international event.
We must not forget the audience 🙂
800 people were in the hall on this big day, which is completely raw in a karate in Norway.
Many thanks to the Norwegian Martial Arts Association for the trust and cooperation before and during the NM 🙂
Best regards
Sensei Gerth P. Scérri
