XXII WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS FSKA ITALY

Dear friends

It is with great pleasure to invite you to participate in the next XXII FSKA World Championships which will be held from 27 to 30 October in the city of Treviglio (BG) at the “Palafacchetti” sports hall in Via Bosco.

Treviglio is a town on the outskirts of Bergamo, with 3 international airports in its vicinity. It is a town in the Po Valley in the north of Italy, close to important cities such as Milan and holiday resorts on the lakes and mountains of the Alps and Prealps.

At the request of the Delegations to and from the airport, as well as from the Hotels to the Sports Pavilion and from there to the Hotels.

The conduct of the International Championship will contribute to the further development of the Funakoshi Shotokan Karate Association and we are confident in the large presence of Italian athletes and athletes from the various continents. We thank everyone for being present at this important post-covid event, which sees the restart of FSKA international activities, hoping that the war in Ukraine will also allow the Ukrainian team to participate in the XXII FSKA World Championship in Italy.

FSKA 27th Annual Spring Tournament 2020

With the concern surrounding the Coronavirus and concerns about the health and safety of our families, we have determined that it would be wise to cancel our Spring Tournament (April 25, 2020) just to ensure everyone’s safety.
