With competitors from 37 countries Karate1 Salzburg successfully finalized this year’s season of Karate1 and presented a real Karate festival to all Karate fans. Gripping fights, breathtaking finals and a perfect organisation once more demonstrated the professionalism of this world class Karate league.
