Welcome

The EKF is recognised as the official governing body for English Karate by the British Karate Federation, European Karate Federation and World Karate Federation.

The English Karate Federation (EKF) is set-up as a democratically elected body for English Karate to cover the whole spectrum of our martial art and to further develop an understanding administration that listens to the needs of all the many aspects of Karate from Sport to Traditional, from the youngest beginner to the most senior instructor.

EKF Regional Championships March 20-21 2010

EKF NATIONALS 24-25 APRIL 2010

English Karate Federation Nationals April 2010

English Karate Associations (EKA) Championships April 2010

The board of the EKF do not recognise the (EKA) English Karate Associations as it is not a member of the EKF, it therefore follows that the EKF do not recognise the forthcoming EKA championships to be held April 10th 2010 at the Richard Dunn Centre Bradford.

The EKA championships is therefore NOT an EKF authorised event, and the advice from the EKF board is NOT to have sporting relations with non-EKF members.
