2015 Arizona Karate Championships  and USA Karate National Qualifier
                                                        

Dear Sensei,

instructors, competitors, and parents;

 
   We're less than three weeks out. If you are a competitor, please register now. Every year we have competitors that wait to the last minute and accidentally miss the deadline. It breaks my heart having to tell them there is nothing I can do after the deadline. Wheels are in motion that I cannot stop when the deadline hits. So please register now.
1. Volunteers
2. Coaches
3. Referee and Judges
4 Table and Referee training
5. AZ Competition Team Jackets 
1. Volunteers
To run a professional event, volunteers are needed. If you would like to help us, please check below to volunteer.If you are unable to help all day, part time is available. Of course we will love you more for all day help. :)
 
2. Coaches
You will not be able to access the competition area without proper Arizona Coach Credentials. See below for details.
3. Referee and Judges
Without you, there is no competition. I understand the difficulty of the job and the sometime abuse from competitors. But they actually love you; they just don't know how to show it properly. Please come and help. We need you there by 8am and we expect the competition to be complete by 4pm. Lunch is provided and we give a slap on the back; which of course is priceless!Referee attire is required except during the weapons competition from 8-9am. Karate gi is acceptable for those weapons judges who are there for weapons competition only.
4. Table and Referee Training
For those who wish to learn and practice table scoring and time keeping, we will be practicing every Wednesday and Thursday up until the tournament. See below for details.For those referees and judges who want to practice with live competition matches, we will be running live matches every Wednesday and Thursday up until the tournament. See below for details. 
5. Arizona Competition Team Jacket
As many of you now know we have a competition team jacket program for those competitors who compete at the national level. 
Please see below for details on this outstanding program.
In closing, I can't adequately express my appreciation to all who help and support this championship. There is so much that goes on behind the scenes,most of which nobody sees. Thank you!!!!!!!!!! 
  
Sincerely,

Competition jackets are available to 2015 Arizona Championship medal winners who plan to compete in a 2015 USA Karate national competition for a special medalist rate.

Policy: To receive a jacket, a medalist must show a registration receipt for the upcoming national competition.

If a medalist strongly plans to compete at a USA Karate national competition and does not yet have a registration receipt, the competitor can sign this agreement (parent's signature required if under 18 yrs. of age), along with their Sensei's signature. They agree to pay the balance of the regular jacket price if they for any reason are unable to compete.If a competitor has pre-purchased a jacket for $80 prior to the Arizona Championship and wins a medal at the state championship, USA Karate AZ will refund the difference back to the competitor. The competitor must still show registration receipt or signed agreement. The competitor agrees to pay the balance of the regular jacket price if they for any reason are unable to compete.
