RULES
Competitors must perform the prescribed kata from the respective round. With this transparent and fair system Aka & Shiro perform the same kata. The list of katas is found in the "Invitation 2026" document on www.tomodachi-dojo.ch -> Tomodachi Kata Cup

There are two third places. It is allowed to start the kata a second time.

The key date for age classification is the age at tournament day (U16 = not yet 16 years of age). Registration with wrong age or grade can lead to disqualification. Participants at the age of 14 and 15 are allowed to additionally participate in the +16 categories. +40 participants can choose to compete either in the +16 categories, Golden League or +40 category.

A lower belt competitor is allowed to compete in a higher belt category.

To save time, we reserve the right to let the lower belt U16 individual categories perform their kata simultaneously.

Golden League
Adults (+18) who have competed in adult European or World Championships within the last two years or those who want to challenge themselves, compete in this separate high-level category. It is not allowed to start the kata a second time. Not finishing the kata leads to disqualification.

Team
Competitors can only register in one team. Exception: Juniors from the age of 14yrs can additionally compete in the +16 team category in the afternoon.

“Tomodachi Kata Cup rules” (in German) are relevant in case of discussions.
