Kicktoberfist introduces new kicking contest

Kuro Oookami Dojo’s annual tournament over the weekend showcased their karate skills.

Over 125 competitors from around Saskatchewan demonstrated their training and skills in a variety of divisions.  Among them were sparring, kickboxing, and open hand forms of kata.

They even introduced a new kicking contest called KICKathon where competitors see how many times they can kick a punching bag within a given time limit.

The competition’s divisions split up athletes that range in age from four to 60 years old.

According to Alyssa Czasnojc with Kuro Oookami Dojo, they fared well at their Alfred Jenkins Field House tournament.
