KWU national federations and KWU team trip to Japan

At the moment several countries already have established national federations of KWU

Besides Russia, where all federations cooperate already for many years in the frames of the united Russian Association of Kyokushin, such countries as Chile, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Romania, Reunion Islands, and Kazakhstan have also established their national unions.

“We are very pleased with integration processes, which take place in KWU today. Without a doubt, the process is stimulated by the policy of KWU, which is aimed at the unification of various schools with the goal of participation and holding of joined competitions. What is also important – is the rules of holding national qualifications to the upcoming 3rd World Championship, which will be held in Tokyo on November 25-26, 2017”, KWU General Secretary Sergei Suvorov said to our webpage.
