Competition, when done in a respectable manner, drives individuals to become better and to achieve more goals. It teaches us valuable life skills, such as good sportsmanship, drive, and the desire to win. There are many different levels in which competition can be a useful tool. You can compete with others, you can compete with yourself, or your team may compete against other teams. In whichever manner you chose to compete, creating a habit, or a drive to win, will help you become a champion in life.

The PKC, in order to provide the very best in Martial Arts competition, is constantly striving to improve the quality of martial arts competition. PKC Region #7 promoters meet annually to set their event dates and discuss ideas for improvement to the Tournament Series. The promoters may update the schedule throughout the season with more information about their events. If you have any suggestions or concerns about competition rules, divisions, or general ideas for improving the quality of the events please contact Mr. Rob Starks prior to this meeting and he will be happy to convey your ideas to the promoters. For more information about each event click the flyer link, or contact the promoter. This is an OPEN tournament series, and competitors from all styles of martial arts are invited to participate.
