Results from the 7th USA-IFK International Kyokushin Championships that took place in grand fashion at the Tropicana Hotel in Atlantic City, NJ, are published on the official website of the hosts.

This prestigious annual event brought together 203 competitors from 19 martial arts federations, spanning 19 U.S. states, 49 clubs, and three countries, to compete across numerous divisions in kata, weapons kata, semi-knockdown, and full-knockdown competition.

Nearly 300 spectators from across the country and the globe gathered to witness a day of intense and inspiring competition, highlighting the skill, dedication, and indomitable spirit of Kyokushin karateka. The USA-IFK extends its immense gratitude to USA-IFK President Shihan Michael Monaco, USA-IFK Chairman Shihan Sean Schenker, and the entire USA-IFK team for their relentless dedication in organizing and elevating this event to new heights. A special thank you is also extended to Master Alan Goldberg for his ongoing support in Atlantic City.

We also wish to recognize and deeply appreciate the efforts of all staff, coaches, officials, volunteers, and behind-the-scenes contributors who worked tirelessly to make this event a resounding success. To all competitors—your perseverance, strength, and spirit truly embodied the essence of Kyokushin. Congratulations on your performance, and we look forward to seeing you at the next USA-IFK event. Osu!
