7th TRADITIONAL KARATE WORLD CUP
JUNE 15, 2013, LUBLIN, POLAND
The 7th Traditional Karate World Cup 2013 took place on 15 June 2013 in the Sport Hall GLOBUS in Lublin (Poland). The 2013 World Cup was combined with a tournament for young traditional karate athletes – Traditional Karate Polish Children’s Cup.
The 2013 World Cup was dedicated to the memory of Dan Stuparu Sensei who passed away on 28 April 2013. We still feel deep grief after his sudden and unexpected passing and we cannot accept that he is no longer with us especially in view of the forthcoming World Cup. He has participated in all previous editions of the World Cup since 2001 and he was supposed to participate with the Romanian athletes in 2013 edition, too.
In the Word Cup scompetitions are set by the individual cup system. 8 players and 8 female players start in the technical events (kitei, kata) and in close combat – they must demonstrate a comprehensive technical preparation. European Cup competitions are held every two years.
