I went to the FIMA Fall Classic Karate Tournament. They usually have 3-400 competitors. There were only 120 competitors today and no adults competed. This tournament has been running in NJ for 16 yrs. and this is the first time they had no adult competition. I think attendance and competitors in karate tournaments is dropping.
All my own students had excuses like the fact that they were going away but most were just not interested.
My question is - Do others notice a downturn in tournament competition?
By the way I have been really busy with my post-grad degree so I apologize for not posting recently.  Happy holidays & good health to everyone and their families.
Thanks,
Sensei Tom

Hi Sensei Tom
Glad to have you back.
If I had more time to train for a tournament I wouldnt mind attending but at this point in my life I dont have enough dedicated time to train just for a tourney.

Point sparing is quite different than how we train.
and I dont think I would enter a full contact match now.

Did you have any students go to the tourney?
If so how did they do?
