World Karate Federation

The English Karate Federation are affiliated with the WKF (World Karate Federation), who are officially recognised by the International Olympic Committee (IOC).

There are members of JKS England who have taken advantage of this structure, and have competed (and continue to compete) at the very highest level in the world.
