According to IRNA, the city of Athens in Greece will host the first Karate One Series A 2023 event. This competition will be held on the 23rd to 25th of January this year.
Karatewan competitions are held in 2 divisions, Serie A and Premier League, hosted by different countries, which have world ranking points.
It is not yet clear whether the Iranian karatekas will appear in Athens or not, but considering the participation in the Russian competition and then the Asian championship in Uzbekistan, it is unlikely that our country’s federation will make a decision to send the team to Greece.
Financial issues are the biggest obstacle to send to different stages of karatewan.
