Karate World Cadet, Junior & U21 Championships to be held as planned despite unrest

 

 

The World Karate Federation has announced that the 2019 World Cadet, Junior & U21 Championships in Santiago (Chile) will be celebrated as scheduled despite the situation of social unrest in the country. 

 

Karate’s international governing body will be hosting the most important underage competition of the sport as planned after receiving confirmation from the Chilean authorities that conditions for the normal progress of the tournament were assured.  

 

The 2019 World Cadet, Junior & U21 Championships are scheduled to take place in Santiago from Wednesday, October 23 to Sunday, October 27.

 

The Chilean National Karate federation, in constant communication with top sports authorities in the country, received official confirmation from their government that participants and staff members’ safety ahead of the event was guaranteed. 

 

The wellbeing of all the members of the Karate family taking part at the World Cadet, Junior & U21 Championships in Santiago is our main concern.

Since the Chilean government has made clear that the event could be held as expected, we will continue with the anticipated celebration of underage sport that is our World Cadet, Junior & U21 Championships,” said WKF President Antonio Espinós. 

 

The Chilean government declared a state of emergency in parts of Santiago early Saturday after riots broke around the capital.

 

The protests began on Monday over an increase in metro fares but morphed into extended protests.

World Cadet, Junior & U21 Championships competition calendar modified

 

 

Due to the special circumstances in Chile, the World Karate Federation has announced that the competition calendar of the upcoming World Cadet, Junior & U21 Championships has been amended

 

The modification aims at adapting the event to the unusual situation in the country as well as guaranteeing the well-being of competitors and staff members, and ensuring the normal progress of the competition. 

 

Following the decision taken by the WKF Executive Committee today, each competition day will be centred on only one category, with finals and medal ceremonies being held on the same day.

 

Therefore, the competition will be organised as follows

 

- Wednesday: Individual Kata 

- Thursday: Cadet Kumite

- Friday: Junior Kumite 

- Saturday: U21 Male Kumite 

- Sunday: U21 Female Kumite and Team Kata 

 

HERE is the modified competition calendar:

Live streaming of World Cadet, Junior & U21 Championships cancelled

 

 

The World Karate Federation announced today that the live streaming of the World Cadet, Junior & U21 Championships being held in Santiago (Chile) has been cancelled due to the unusual circumstances in the country. 

 

Karate’s international governing body decided to cancel the live streaming of the event due to the special conditions affecting the country in the past days.

 

The Chilean government declared a state of emergency in Santiago early Saturday after riots broke around the capital.

 

The protests began on Monday and spread over different areas of the city and other regions of the country. 

 

Due to the difficulties in securing the connections and logistics that are required to produce the trade-mark high-quality live streaming of WKF events, the World Karate Federation decided to abandon its plans to broadcast the event live on its YouTube channel. 

 

The WKF regrets the inconveniences caused by this decision and encourage fans to follow the event on WKF social media channels.

 

The WKF will provide timely information on the championships on its Facebook, Instagram and Twitter pages

Shame on them! :facepalm::wall::thumbdown::spank:

 

If they couldn't provide an excellent media coverage of the tournament because of the environmental conditions, they should have moved it to another place or date or, if necessary, even cancel this year's championship!

 

and then they still cry because they've been thrown out of the Olympics! :whistle:

I often disagree when blaming federations, but not here...it's hardly their fault when a country goes to shit and cancelling an event so shortly before it's planned isn't always a great plan neither..

    • I think the reason is that it's generally preferable to have a fast shooter in the 1st leg, and especially in the prone shooting, where Hofer is quite slow.   Now, I'm not saying I agree with the choice, because I don't. I think it's going to neutralize Giacomel's skiing skills in the 1st lap at least.   I guess the idea is to try and set a very fast pace in the 1st leg, which is usually quite tactical, but I'm afraid that's going to force Giacomel to risk too much because he will feel he has to make some time somehow.   Regardless, Italy must be on the podium tomorrow. I think that would be crucial for the following races as well. I think France is the clear favorite, but the other teams are not stronger than Italy on paper.
