Arena Karate Academy Referees surpassed all expectation at the EKKA East of England Open Karate Championships in Ipswich on Sunday. The officials included EKF Judge 'A' Wendy and Steve Jowett, EKF Judge 'B' Andy Cornish and new kid on the block Nina Hall. The day started off with a Referee course under the instruction of World Karate Referee Billy Brennan 8th Dan who used the course to launch the Mirror Judge System of the New WKF Kumite rules.
The course was followed by the championship which was used as a pilot event for the Mirror Judge System which is to soon be rolled out across the country under the umbrela of the EKF.
