WKF President celebrates progress of Karate in America at PKF Championships
WKF President Antonio Espinós attended the 2022 Pan American Karate Championships this week where he praised the remarkable progress of the sport on the continent.

The 2022 PKF Karate Championships were held in Curacao this week. In addition to the thrilling competition, the Pan American Karate Federation celebrated its annual Congress and meetings.

Representatives from 28 countries participated in the Congress which was headed by PKF President José García Maañón. The development of the sport in the Americas was discussed at the meeting while the celebration of Karate events in the continent was also reviewed.

Mr Espinós also met with top sports officials during his visit to Curacao as Karate continues to further strengthen its presence in the World and Olympic sports community.

WKF President said:

“The WKF has worked together with the continental federations such as the PKF to push Karate to a whole new level. While we have evolution and modernisation on our minds, we never forget the spirit and many values of Karate. Now we need to continue our great work by working closely together and continue writing new and exciting chapters in the history of our sport around the World and here in America.”

“I want to thank the PKF and its President José García Maañón for the efforts in hosting this event and for their hard work to ensure the progress of Karate in America.”
