February

 Sato Cup

February 3, 2007

In six short years, the Sato Cup has quickly established itself as the premier martial arts competition in the Pacific Northwest. Named in honour of one of Canada’s most respected practitioners, Master Akira Sato, The Sato Cup is sanctioned by both Karate BC, the governing body for karate in British Columbia, and the National Karate Association.

However, the Sato Cup is much more than just a karate tournament. Attracting competitors from as far away as Quebec, the US, Japan and Argentina, its goal is to foster the spirit of friendship and goodwill amongst competitors and countries.
