Statute 21.9
Following a meeting with some of our members, it has been brought to our attention that some tournaments and courses may have innocently breached the above statute. This is because non WKF members may have attended these events and trained with members, thus constituting a breach. In future anyone holding a tournament, competition, or course must ensure that all participants are in membership of a WKF recognised and affiliated organisation, and must state this on entry forms and posters. Failure to do so will mean that the organiser of the event has knowingly breached 21.9 and will be subject to implementation of the rules regarding statute 21.9. Thank you for your cooperation WKGB Anti-Doping Policy ReminderThe WKGB holds strongly to the Drug Free Sport policy and takes the use of banned substances very seriously. Please see the UK Anti Doping link for more information on accepted and banned substances. click here for more on the rules.

‘ Welsh Higashi’‘With regards to the complaints received about the above Association breaching the 21.9 rule. As explained to the people concerned – Welsh Higshi is an autonomous group, with it’s own constitution, AGM’s etc., The group does not have it’s own website. Welsh Higashi was originally called Welsh Karate Wado Kai – at the time Sid Crocker’s Association was called Wales Karate Wado Kai – in order to avoid confusion, the Chief Instructor Keith Mumberson asked Peter Spanton of Higashi Karate Kai, if they could use the ‘Higashi’ title – whilst still retaining their individual identity, constitutions etc., the arrangement was for a title change only.
