How To Successfully Hold A Karate Tournament

By Sandra Roberts


Before one succeeds in a given activity, they must work for success. That working for success is the process that is involved in the achieving of the intended goal, and that is a success. Therefore, success is not an event but a long process that takes a very long time. In the same way, holding a karate tournament that will leave each person happy and satisfied is not easy, but it is possible. You only have to understand the critical aspects of such a process, as discussed here.

It is common knowledge that any tournament is not an event but a process. Just as it is in the political circles where elections are not events but processes, in the same manner, any championship begins when the key stakeholders assume office. Thus, make sure there is an open office in place to govern this game, from the way the players train to the day the best among them carries the trophy. Hence, number one is the enactment of official authority.

When it comes to putting together the teams, commonly known as pooling, there must be complete fairness. A particular team or play should not be given an undue advantage over the rest. To avoid such a scenario, all persons of interest must never take part in that process. If someone who is directly linked to a given team or player is part of the pooling team, make sure you agree on ground rules to avoid unnecessary conflicts.

Every participant must adhere to the laid rules and regulations. Teams and individual players must be given rules that must be adhered to by all the participants. To ensure that no conflicts will arise, especially those that are as a result of unjust management systems, the regulations must cut across the board. Players, their coaches, and even sponsors need to trust the process to believe and accept the final results.

The moderation of a game is very important. Here, you are in the actual activity, and any mistake can bring a lot of conflicts. There are rules about the selection of referees and who becomes a referee. Use professionals who have both the name and the image in their areas of the profession. If you want to avoid the pull and push that is sometimes characteristic of some championships, let referees be professional people with no interest in the game at hand.

Every activity has objectives and has goals. Whatever the championship wants to achieve must also be clear since this is the selling point. When there is clarity in the targets, it will become very easy for entering teams to align themselves towards the achievement of the purposes and the bigger goal. As such, the organizers are advised to indicate what the reasons for holding it are so that all the players can know why they are taking part.

Again, other than just objectives, people love incentives. Let everyone know what is in for them so as invest their time and money with the ultimate prize in mind. Incentives could be in terms of money, sponsorship, trophies and belts, global tours, among other things.

In the end, everyone must play their role with diligence and high integrity. It must be known that each element is a part of a bigger system and, therefore, must be appreciated accordingly to motivate and create an opportunity for a better tomorrow. Remember that when you become successful, other people will want to emulate you, but when you fail, you must learn from your mistakes. However, do not wait to learn from your mistakes since they can be fatal.
