Olympics Karate
The quest to bring karate to the Olympics was begun in the 1970s by Jacques Delcourt. Karate at the 2020 Summer Olympics is an event to be held in the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan. It will be the debut appearance of karate at the Summer Olympics. Karate is one of four new sports added to the Olympic program specifically for 2020, rather than as a permanent sport. The karate competitions at the 2020 Olympics will feature eight events. Two karate disciplines will be featured: kumite is the sparring discipline and will have three weight classes each for men and women; kata is the solo form discipline, and will have one event each for men and women. Competitors choose the kata to demonstrate from 102 kata that are recognized by the World Karate Federation. Competitors are not allowed to demonstrate the same Kata twice during the tournament. Each event will have 10 competitors. Seasons none found... Teams none found... Key () Missing Artwork (- 4) Missing 4 Players: Data and Artwork () Team Complete Trophy Icon Fanart Banner Other Links
