Certification for first time USA Karate Officials. Certification for Regional Kata Judge C and Kumite Judge B. 14 years and older, brown and black belts are eligible to take the course and exam.
This is a USA Karate National Program. There are several steps and actions that must be met (see flyer for steps and actions.) It may seem complicated. It is not. Download the Step by Step Instruction sheet below and take one step at a time.
It may seem overwhelming and expensive when considering becoming a USA Karate Official. The benefits greatly outweigh the initial struggle. Officiating has improved my leadership, karate, and teaching skills. I am a better martial artist for this.
I would attack this initial challenge as you attacked your karate training, one step at a time. You were not a black belt when you started training.
For those teens who want to improve their college applications, being listed as a certified USA Karate Official is excellent. USA Karate is the governing body for karate for the USOPC—a powerful connection.
One final note. Our competitors need us. They need qualified, trained officials. Martial artists give back. Officiating is a great way to do this.
