By
the time I moved to New Hampshire I worked out what the purpose of the open
Karate Tournament was to them.
I
used to tell my students if you want fairness, you won’t find it by competing
in an open karate tournament. Consider if the judges you have are all fools and
you take first place, then what it means is that fools liked what you did that
day.
The
real person you are competing against is yourself. The open tournament just
offers you a place to perform your karate under pressure,
You are competing to work to your best (at that time) under pressure, no matter what the outcome
