May 2025 Newsletter

Dear Karate Australia Members,

As we reach the halfway point of 2025, I want to take a moment to thank our incredible karate community for your continued passion and commitment. From grassroots to elite, it’s been inspiring to see your energy across competitions, club activities, and development programs this past quarter.
 
This edition of the newsletter highlights some key moments, our growing national events, the progress on coach and official accreditation, and the momentum we’re building with government support for grassroots initiatives.
 
Behind the scenes, we’re working hard to strengthen our systems, elevate our standards, and ensure karate in Australia continues to thrive. Whether you’re an athlete, coach, parent, volunteer or supporter, thank you for being part of Karate Australia.
 
Let’s keep moving forward, together.
