1st Balkan Shito Ryu Open Championship
Durres, Albania
26 - 27 September 2015
Sport Hall “Ramazan Njala”
Dear friends and colleagues,
I am honored to invite you for the very first time in Albania, in order to participate in
the 1st Balkan Shito Ryu Open Championship.
By “Open” we’re pleased to host a championship which is open to all countries around
the Balkans as well as open for all styles in the event of Kumite.
The purpose of this Championship is to connect the Shito Ryu practitioners all over the
Balkan, European, Asian and African countries, no matter under which line they’ve been
practicing. The Shito Ryu “freestylers” are also welcome in order to meet those who are
working traditionally under World Shito Ryu Karate Federation (W.S.K.F.), and establish
connections for a common achievement, the growth of Shito Ryu worldwide.
Albania has been chosen for this first event because is easily accessible by air, sea and
road, as well as is a country which the costs of accommodation and general costs are quite
low.
The city of Durres has a very big capacity in hotels of all types and categories
accordingly to the cost you’re willed to bear. All delegations are free to get accommodation
wherever they’re pleased. In case that you need help to get accommodation, transportation
or anything else, you may contact [email protected]
The date of the events have been chosen through monitoring the activities of the
National Federations and it’s a good opportunity for a fast comeback of our students in the
dojos, in order to start their preparation for the coming up events in Balkans, in Europe and
worldwide.
Hoping you will encourage our efforts to unite the strong Balkan core of Shito Ryu
through your participation, we anticipate in welcome you all in Albania.
Best Regards,
Evagelos Lachouris
Balkan Shitokai Karate Association
President
