Welcome!
Welcome to the White Sands Karate Classic. Our tournament is proud to offer Northwest Florida's premier martial arts tournament with a focus on the competitor. Our tournament understands the challenges of todays’ martial arts instructor and student and strives to provide the most fair, fun, competitive event that will motivate the student/competitor to return to their schools and push their training to the next level.
As school owners and instructors for over 30 years and having successfully ran and competed in local, national and International tournaments we understand the need for an event that will motivate, not de-motivate the student. Our goal is to provide an event that yourself or your students will be proud to say they are a part of and will take pride in competing in.
Along with a great Karate tournament we will also be hosting the WKA USA Team Tryouts. Do you think you have what it takes to compete with the worlds’ best and become the next “World Champion “? Then step up and tryout for your spot and chance to represent the USA at the next World Championships held this September in Orlando.
