KARATE ONTARIO HISTORY

KARATE CANADA NATIONAL COMPETITION RESULTS

By Charles Rhodes, P. Eng., Ph.D.

INTRODUCTION:
The purpose of this web page is to compile and display information about Karate Canada (formerly the National Karate Association) National Competition Results, especially those results achieved by members of the Ontario karate team. We welcome receipt of new or more accurate or more detailed data. We hope to eventually present information regarding the performance of Ontario team members in Canadian national karate competition from 1962 to the present.

We are seeking reliable historical data from any source. The data should relate to people, tournaments, tournament results, officiating, coaching or Karate Canada / NKA governance. Photographs of prominent individuals would be helpful.

Please email data to CSLRhodes@gmail.com or letter mail or courier documents to:
