"WE THOUGHT IT WAS SO WELL ORGANISED. SUCH A WELCOMING ATMOSPHERE FOR THE LITTLE ONES & DIDN'T FEEL INTIMIDATING AT ALL. THE INSTRUCTORS WERE SO ATTENTIVE & WENT OUT OF THEIR WAY TO ENCOURAGE THE CHILDREN & MAKE THEM FEEL COMFORTABLE."

"IT WAS OUR 1ST TIME ATTENDING THE TOURNAMENT & WHAT A BRILLIANT EVENT! ENTERTAINING, GREAT TO SEE THE DISCIPLINE & A FAB ATMOSPHERE! WE LOVED WATCHING & MY DAUGHTER REALLY ENJOYED IT TOO. THANKS SO MUCH!"

EVENT OF THE YEAR!

We have a Kickboxing Tournament every year in each of our locations so that students can experience the competitive side of Kickboxing & meet other students from across the organisation.

It's a fantastic opportunity for parents to see what their children have been learning too!

We encourage all of our students to attend regardless of age or experience so they can have some fun & demonstrate all they have learnt in their lessons, in a safe & controlled environment. 

Whether your child has only had one lesson or are a senior grade, they can compete for a Bronze, Silver or Gold medal in the categories (listed below), against students of their age & ability.

All techniques in the categories listed below are practised in your child's regular Kickboxing class preceding the Tournament, so they know exactly what to expect.

We recommend that students participate in multiple categories regardless of experience - they will find it incredibly rewarding & it will build their confidence.

At all of our Tournaments, our Instructors will do a 10 minute demonstration of their Kickboxing skills so you can see just how good they are!

We usually have items available from our Samurai shop & refreshments to purchase and run a raffle for our Charity of the Year with some great prizes on offer.

 CATEGORIES.


HIGH KICK

Kick against a measure to see who can get the highest kick in their
age & height category.




POWER TECHNIQUE

Break a board with a hand or foot technique. The person who breaks a board that no one else can, wins!



SEQUENCE

Perform techniques from the belt below their grade. The student who has the most power, flow & technical accuracy wins.




SPARRING

Only for:
Little Samurai - Brown & White Tags & above
Young Samurai - Green Stripes & above
Samurai Kickboxers - All



Students score points against each other by delivering controlled kicks & punches against target areas on their opponent. The student with the most points at the end of the contest wins.

Students who attend a Tournament will be awarded with double Sparring Points to add to the total required to enable them to take their next Grading - click here to read more about Sparring Points & Grading.

Students must have their own sparring equipment approved by Samurai Kickboxing & which can be purchased from our online shop.

For health reasons, sparring equipment may not be shared among students.

 AWARDS.

We present the following prestigious awards at our Tournaments:

STUDENT OF THE YEAR - presented to a student who has consistently demonstrated a high standard of technical ability as well as the positive behaviour traits required to become an elite martial artist.

NICK METCALFE AWARD - presented to a student who is polite, determined, passionate, dedicated, demonstrates exceptional 'true grit' & has respect for others. Technical kickboxing ability is also important which is why the Nick Metcalfe Award is presented to a great all-round martial artist - just like Nick who was a fellow martial artist & friend of Matt's (Owner & Chief Instructor) who tragically died in a car crash.

"THE ORGANISATION & ABILITY TO BE INCLUSIVE OF ALL THE CHILDREN ATTENDING WAS FANTASTIC. IT WAS MY SON'S 1ST TIME & HE HAD AN ABSOLUTE BALL. HE HAS ARTHRITIS & TO SEE HIM SO ENGAGED & EXCITED ABOUT HIS KICKBOXING IS A TOTAL JOY! HE ALSO NOW THINKS HE'S AN OLYMPIC FINALIST WITH HIS BRONZE MEDAL!"
