NS Provinical Karate Team

Minimize

The Nova Scotia Karate Team represents the province of Nova Scotia at the annual Canadian National Black Belt Karate Championship, which also includes the Junior Karate Championship. The Team is made up of male and female karateka from across the province that are actively training in a dojo that is a current member in good standing of the Nova Scotia Karate Association (NSKA). All team members must be residents in the province of Nova Scotia and must have reached the minimum age of 14 years old, by the 26th of August 2010.

Each year, the Nova Scotia Karate Team invites anyone interested in becoming a member of the team an opportunity to compete for a spot to represent Nova Scotia at the Canadian National Black Belt Karate Championships. The Championships take place annually in a pre-designated host province, usually confirmed immediately following the most recent event. Athletes are assisted in numerous ways to prepare for the competition in order to achieve optimum success in their event(s). There are individual, as well as, team events of kumite and kata. These events are further divided by the age and weight (for kumite) of the competitor. As a part of the Nova Scotia Karate Team, each athlete will be entitled to team workouts, clinics and other seminars offered specifically to team members to ensure their continued development. 
 
By competing in the National Championships, you will have the opportunity to make the National Team. Each year, both the Junior and Senior National teams compete in various International competitions. Making the Nova Scotia Karate Team is the first step to achieving goals such as Pan-American, World or even Olympic Champion.

Cost $5 .....

Rules: Send the team 6 numbers between 1 and 49 (no duplicates), similarly to what you would do when getting a lotto 6-49 ticket. Please list them in order from lowest to highest. We use the Atlantic Lotto 6/49 numbers, which are drawn weekly (Weds & Sat), to select which numbers are removed from your 6 selected. The first person (or persons) with all their numbers removed first based on the Atlantic Lotto 6-49 will win 50% of the total pool take. In the event of a tie with 2 or more people, the prize amount will be shared evenly.
