The Northern California Karate League consists of a small number of dojo that have come together with a single goal in mind; to create a friendly, safe environment where local karateka can meet fellow students, and test their skills through spirited competition. All NCKL events include divisions for individual kata and kumite competition, as well as team kata competition. Some NCKL events may also include team kumite, weapons competition or self-defense competition, depending on the hosting dojo. Competitors belonging to a NCKL-affiliated dojo accumulate league points for winning 1st, 2nd or 3rd place in individual competition. Special awards are given to the top ranking competitors during our yearly banquet dinner based on the final results at the end of the league season. The NCKL is unaffiliated with any national organizations. We strive to provide our competitors and invited karateka with safe, fairly judged events. All of our tournaments are by invitation only. Tournament rules remain consistent at each venue, therefore competitors know what to expect prior to their competition. This site hosts information on upcoming NCKL events, as well as general information regarding tournaments and seminars in Northern California. Please note that not all events are open to the public and are invitation-only. When is the next event? What are the current league standings? What is new on the site? |
