Over the past 30 years the tournament has established itself as a premier martial arts event and has the distinguished title as being known as the longest running event sanctioned by the International Karate Organization (IKO) in North America.

Once again, the tournament will host over 200 competitors from around the globe, and will offer Kata and Kumite divisions for every level of competitor, from young children to advanced adults. To top off an exciting weekend, Kancho Matsui will be holding a training Seminar on Sunday the May 5th from 10am-12pm.
